Cookie Bars

Cookie bars are a fun and convenient alternative to traditional cookies. Ideal for those with busy schedules, these treats can be made in a single batch and require less prep time than individual cookies. They are baked in a pan and then cut into squares or rectangles, yielding multiple servings from a single recipe. Almost any cookie recipe can be adapted into a cookie bar version, giving you a wide range of flavors, textures, and ingredients to experiment with. From classic chocolate chip and peanut butter to oatmeal raisin and rainbow sprinkle, cookie bars provide a delicious twist on your favorite sweet treats.

Expiration & Storage Tips
When does Cookie Bars expire?
Cookie bars, whether store-bought or homemade, typically last about 2-3 weeks at room temperature in an airtight container. When kept in the fridge, they can last up to a month. If you're wondering about the freezer, good news: yes, you can freeze them! They can last a huge leap up to 3 months in there. But please note this timeframe starts from the 'Bake On' or 'Best By' date printed on store-bought versions, and from the day you baked them if they're homemade.
How do you tell if Cookie Bars is bad?
The simplest way to tell if your cookie bars are still snackable is to check for any noticeable changes in color, smell, or texture. If they're starting to look a bit off (faded, discolored, or have spots of mold), smell stale or off-putting, or have gone hard and dry to the touch, I'm afraid it's time to let them go.
Tips for storing Cookie Bars to extend shelf life
• For starters, always store cookie bars in an airtight container. This will protect them from air and moisture, which are two primary causes of spoilage. • Keep the container in a cool, dark place if you're storing the bars at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight and heat, which can speed up the spoilage process. • If you're keeping them longer and need to refrigerate or freeze the bars, it's best to wrap them individually in plastic wrap before placing in the container. This protects them from picking up smells and flavors from their chilly companions. • When you're ready to enjoy those frozen cookie bars, let them thaw in the refrigerator overnight for the best texture and taste.
