- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup salted butter softened
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 heaping Tablespoon sour cream
- 1 teaspoon birthday cake extract (or vanilla) (I prefer this birthday cake extract)

Instructions
Cookie Bars
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9×13 inch baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, or stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy; about 2 minutes. Add the eggs and combine well. Add the sour cream and birthday cake (or vanilla) extract; beat until combined. Gradually blend in the flour mixture just until combined.
- Press dough evenly into the bottom of the greased pan with your hands. You can spray a little cooking spray on your hands so the batter doesn’t stick to them. Bake for 18 to 19 minutes only. Remove from oven and let cool completely before frosting.
Frosting
- In a medium bowl, beat together the butter, 2 cups powdered sugar, and milk until combined. Slowly add in the remaining two cups of powdered sugar until combined. Add the birthday cake extract and salt.
- *If you want color, add drops of desired color of food dye into the frosting and mix until fully blended and has reached desired color.
- Frost with frosting and sprinkle with lots of sprinkles! Cut into bars and serve!
