Ingredients:

1 cup butter
220g
1/2 cup sugar
100g
1/3 cup brown sugar
72g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4g
1 egg
50g
2 cups all-purpose white wheat flour
250g
2 tsp cinnamon
6g
1 tsp baking powder
5g
1 tsp baking soda
5g
1 cup dark chocolate
230g
1 tsp salt
5g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
2. Cream the Butter and Sugars:
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
3. Add Wet Ingredients:
Beat in the vanilla extract and the egg until fully combined and smooth.
4. Combine Dry Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, ground cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
5. Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients:
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the dough.
6. Fold in Chocolate:
Gently fold in the chopped dark chocolate or chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
7. Spread the Dough:
Evenly spread the cookie dough into the prepared 9x13-inch baking pan, pressing it down gently to fill the corners.
8. Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few crumbs.
9. Cool and Cut:
Allow the cookie bars to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cool, cut into squares or bars as desired.
10. Serve and Enjoy:
Serve your delicious cinnamon-spiced cookie bars and enjoy with a glass of milk, coffee, or your favorite beverage!

Tips:

- Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure that the butter and egg are at room temperature before you start. This will help them mix more evenly into the batter.

- Measuring Flour: Accurate flour measurement is key. Use the spoon and level method to avoid packing flour too tightly, which can result in dry bars.

- Mixing: Do not overmix the dough once you add the flour. Overmixing can lead to tough, dense cookie bars instead of light and chewy ones.

- Baking: To ensure even baking, check the cookie bars a few minutes before the suggested baking time is up. The edges should be golden brown while the center remains slightly soft.

- Cooling: Let the bars cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before cutting. This helps them set and makes it easier to cut neat squares.

Now that you’ve made these scrumptious Cinnamon-Spiced Cookie Bars, it’s time to share and enjoy! Whether paired with a cup of coffee or served as an after-dinner treat, these bars are sure to delight everyone who tastes them. Don’t forget to store any leftovers in an airtight container to keep them fresh.
