Vanilla Sugar Cookie Bars

Preheat oven to 375ºF. Line a 9×13 baking pan with parchment paper or spray well with cooking spray. Set aside.

In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar with a hand mixer or stand mixer with fitted paddle attachment until creamy. Add egg, coffee creamer, and vanilla. Mix until combined. Add flour, 1 cup at a time, followed by baking powder and salt. Mix until just combined.

Press dough in an even layer into prepared pan. Bake for 16–18 minutes, or until edges begin to turn slightly golden. Remove from oven and let cool completely in pan.

When bars are cool, prepare frosting. In a large bowl, beat butter until creamy. Add coffee creamer, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar until fluffy. Pour in a few drops of food coloring, if desired.

Spread frosting onto cooled bars. Lift parchment paper out of pan and cut into bars. Enjoy!
