Snickerdoodle Cookie Bars
These snickerdoodle cookie bars have all of the best qualities of classic snickerdoodles, but are baked up into thick and soft bars! With a combination of cream of tartar, cornstarch, and baking powder, these cookie bars yield that signature fluffy snickerdoodle texture. They are topped with a generous sprinkling of cinnamon sugar! So these cookie bars really do check all of the boxes - thick, soft, fluffy, and minimal effort.
