5-ingredient cheesy bars

Welcome to a simple and delicious recipe for 5-ingredient cheesy bars! These tasty snacks are perfect for a quick bite or a party appetizer. With just a few ingredients and minimal effort, you can whip up these cheesy delights in no time.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup self-raising flour
72g
1/2 cup butter
110g
2 cups cheddar cheese
320g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8 inch (20x20 cm) baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easier removal.
2. Combine Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the self-raising flour, melted butter, shredded cheddar cheese, eggs, and garlic powder (if using). Mix until all the ingredients are well incorporated. The mixture will be fairly thick.
3. Spread in the Pan:
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to spread it out evenly and ensure it reaches the corners of the pan.
4. Bake:
Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
5. Cool and Slice:
Remove the baking pan from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for about 10 minutes. Once slightly cooled, cut into bars or squares of your desired size.
6. Serve:
Serve warm for a gooey, cheesy delight, or at room temperature. These cheesy bars make a perfect snack or appetizer.

Tips:

- Make sure to use self-raising flour to ensure that the bars rise properly and have the right texture.

- Room temperature butter will mix more easily with other ingredients, creating a smoother batter.

- Grate fresh cheddar cheese for the best flavor and texture in your cheesy bars.

- Feel free to add some spices, like paprika or Italian seasoning, to the batter for an extra burst of flavor.

- Line your baking dish with parchment paper to make removing the bars easier and to simplify cleanup.

And there you have it—an easy and delicious recipe for 5-ingredient cheesy bars! Perfect for a snack or an appetizer, these bars are sure to be a hit. Enjoy the rich, cheesy flavor and savor every bite. Happy cooking!
