These Snickerdoodle Blondie Bars are buttery, chewy dessert bars with a sweet cinnamon-sugar topping, capturing all the nostalgic flavors of classic snickerdoodle cookies in an easy-to-make bar form.

Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

1 cup light brown sugar

2 large eggs

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Topping:

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang for easy removal.
  2. Cream together butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition, then stir in vanilla extract.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  5. Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until combined.
  6. Spread batter evenly into the prepared pan—it will be thick, so use a spatula to smooth the top.
  7. Mix topping ingredients (sugar and cinnamon) and sprinkle evenly over the batter.
  8. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until edges are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean.
  9. Let cool completely in the pan before removing and slicing into squares.

Notes

For extra cinnamon flavor, swirl some of the cinnamon-sugar mixture through the batter.

Add white chocolate chips or nuts for texture and flavor.

Do not overbake—remove when the center is just set for chewy bars.

Store with a slice of bread in the container to keep them soft.

Serve warm with ice cream or caramel drizzle for an extra treat.
