Confetti Sugar Cookie Bars

Chewy and soft sugar cookie bars with a fluffy vanilla frosting. I topped mine with sprinkles and M&Ms. These make for the perfect kid friendly dessert.

I love the pastel colors of spring; I think that is why I might be even more in love with these sugar cookie bars, or maybe I should call them Easter/Spring Sugar cookie bars. They are very festive for spring, but you can make these soft, chewy bars any day of the year. You can even dye the frosting if you want them to be even more colorful.

When I have to make desserts for a party, I often sit an contemplate what I should make for the adults and children. I want to make sure I have enough variety, and that everything still goes together. There are just too many options to choose from. Is anyone else like that when prepping a meal plan for a party? Well I planned to make these for the children on Easter, and I am sure they are going to be a hit. I wanted to share them with you just in case you were still looking for a dessert to fill you Easter menu. You can also check out our blackberry bars, mini key lime pie, and old fashion hot milk cake, which might all be great additions to your easter desserts.
