Ingredients

  • cooking spray
  • 1 cup salted butter, 2 sticks melted and cooled slightly
  • cup sugar divided
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups flour
  • teaspoons cream of tartar
  • dash of salt
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and spray your 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Combine the melted butter, 1 1/2 cups sugar, eggs, and vanilla in a large bowl with a whisk.
  • Stir in the flour, cream of tartar, and salt until combined, then spread the dough evenly into the baking dish. *The dough will be thick.
  • Mix the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Then sprinkle it on the dough. *Swirl half the cinnamon sugar into the dough by dragging a knife through the dough. Then pat the dough down a bit before baking.

    Finally, cut the bars into squares and enjoy!
