Baking Powder: Make sure it’s fresh and replace it every 6 months.Flour: Fluff your flour before you measure. This will avoid having dense or dry cookies.

Chocolate: Drizzle melted white chocolate. Sprinkle with chopped nuts or shredded coconut.Flavoring: Try adding lemon extract or almond extract to the cookie dough or the frosting. You can add fresh fruit just before serving for a version of fruit pizza. Slice: You can cut these up easily in squares, rectangles, diamonds, and even triangles.Diamond-Cut: For diamonds cut lengthwise lines 1 ½ inch apart. Then cut straight lines 1 ½ inch apart diagonally across the pan. Triangle Cut: For triangles cut the cookies into 2 ½ inch squares then in half diagonally.
How to freeze your sugar cookie bars? You should slice into squares or rectangles and place into a gallon freezer bag in a single layer. Squeeze as much air out as possible and seal. Do not layer multiple bags on top of each other as the frosting will stick. When the cookie bars are completely frozen the bags may be stacked. To serve, allow them to come to room temperature for at least 20 minutes.How long can I store sugar cookie bars? In an airtight container, they can be stored for 2 weeks on the counter, my personal preference to eat them within the first week. In the freezer, they can be stored for up to 3 months.What if the dough is too sticky to put in the greased pan? You can chill the dough for 20 minutes in the refrigerator. If it is still hard to manage add a tablespoon of flour dusting it across the dough and gently pat it in.
