Chocolate Snickerdoodle Bars are chewy dessert bars combining the warm cinnamon-sugar flavor of snickerdoodles with a rich chocolate layer, baked into easy-to-slice bars that are perfect for sharing.

Ingredients

  • 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate (melted or chips)
  • 2 tbsp cinnamon-sugar mixture (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in eggs and vanilla extract until well combined.
  5. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, mixing until a thick dough forms.
  6. Divide the dough in half. Press half evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  7. Spread melted chocolate or sprinkle chocolate chips over the dough layer.
  8. Drop spoonfuls of the remaining dough on top and gently spread to cover, allowing some chocolate to peek through.
  9. Sprinkle cinnamon-sugar mixture generously over the top.
  10. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the center is set.
  11. Cool completely in the pan before slicing into bars.
