Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
2 tsp ground cinnamon
Pinch of salt

Wet Ingredients

½ cup unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs

Icing

½ cup powdered sugar
2 tbsp milk

Instructions

Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking pan to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until well combined to create your dry mixture.
Cream Butter and Sugar: In a separate bowl, cream the softened unsalted butter with sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, which will help create a tender bar texture. Then beat in the eggs one at a time to fully incorporate them.
Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gradually fold the dry ingredient mixture into the creamed wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined to maintain a tender crumb.
Bake the Batter: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Prepare the Icing: While the bars cool slightly, whisk together the powdered sugar and milk until smooth to create a sweet glaze.
Drizzle Icing: Drizzle the glaze evenly over the warm bars to allow it to slightly soak in, adding a delicious finishing touch.

Notes

Ensure butter is softened to room temperature for easier creaming and better texture.
Don’t overmix the batter to keep the bars tender and fluffy.
Allow bars to cool for 10 minutes before icing to prevent glaze from melting off completely.
Store bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
For a dairy-free option, substitute butter and milk with plant-based alternatives.
