Notes
- Store cookie bars in airtight container for up to one week.
- Freeze cookie bars in freezer safe container for up to three months.
- Why use cream of tartar? Cream of tartar gives snickerdoodles their unique flavor and chewy texture. If you don't have any on hand, swap it out for 2 teaspoons baking powder instead.
- Make it over the top by adding a drizzle of vanilla icing or melted white chocolate!
