Bar cookies are the easiest cookies to make. With this recipe you mix the ingredients in a saucepan, the same pan that you melt the butter in. So easy to assemble and the bars are moist and delicious. My husband is the ultimate cookie lover. I know when he says this is a ‘winning’ recipe that it is good. He is the best gauge of a cookie recipe. You can be assured that this recipe has been given the blue ribbon by my cookie lover.
