Confetti Cookie Bars
These bars are full of fun and as simple as 1, 2, 3! Just take our Ann Clark Sugar cookie Mix and add a few ingredients to make these fun colorful bars. These are very similar to a blondie style bar with the chewiness from the brown sugar and the crispy edges from creamy butter.

⅔ cups (4 ounces) chopped white chocolate bars or chips, divided

Equipment Needed:
-
1
Line a 8” x 8” straight sided pan with parchment paper, leaving the edges hanging slightly for easy removal. Set aside.

Remove from the freezer and bake in preheated oven, until edges and top are golden brown and the top is slightly firm to touch, 30 to 35 minutes.

Cool completely in pan on cooling rack, about 1 hour.
-
10
Melt remaining 1/3 cup chocolate on 50 % for about 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted.

Remove from pan by lifting edges of parchment paper. Cut into 4 rows by 4 rows; drizzle with remaining melted white chocolate and immediately sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons sprinkles.
Notes & Tips:
- To make ahead: Make bars the day before and wrap and leave on counter overnight. Then drizzle with white chocolate and sprinkles the following day.
- Use a hot, clean knife on a chilled bar for the cleanest cuts.
