Sugar Cookie Bars

Sugar Cookie Bars for the win!! I have been brainstorming for awhile of a fun easy dessert to make for the 4th of July. My daughter has been begging me for the last couple of weeks to buy her favorite soft Lofthouse Style Frosted Sugar Cookies. It dawned on me that I could totally make them myself but with a fun twist. So out of the oven came these delicious gluten free sugar cookie bars. She has been talking about these sugar cookie bars non stop, bragging to everyone how much they taste like her favorite cookies *but better. Needless to say it warmed my heart 🙂

About Me

A passionate gluten-free and dairy-free food blogger with a fierce love for baking! I’ve been a food blogger for over 5 years now and I adore it. My gluten-free and dairy-free journey began about 9 years ago. After going through some really difficult health obstacles I found out I was sensitive to gluten and dairy. Initially it was very tough. I had no clue what I could eat, and I mourned my regular diet like it was the death of me.
