Sugar Cookie Bars

Ingredients for Cookies:

1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking soda

Ingredients for Frosting:
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
2 Tbsp. butter, softened
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
1 Tbsp. milk
4 Tbsp. strawberry puree
3 to 4 cups powdered sugar

Directions:

To make the cookies, cream the butter and sugar until fluffy.  Add in the eggs and vanilla.  Whisk together flour, salt and baking soda in a separate bowl.  Add in wet ingredients and mix until just combined.  Spread into a greased 9x13 inch pan.  Bake at 375 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes.  The cookies should be lightly golden and a toothpick should come out clean.

For the frosting, use an electric mixer to mix together the cream cheese and butter until fluffy.  In a small bowl mix the chocolate chips and milk.  Melt in the microwave for 30 second intervals until smooth and melted through.  Make sure you mix after each interval.  Add the chocolate mixture to the cream cheese mixture.  Start adding in the powdered sugar until you like the consistency.  Mix in the strawberry puree.


These are so yummy!  I love sugar cookies!
