For a snack that is fast and easy, why not try cookie bars? Be sure to use the correct pan size indicated in your recipe. A pan smaller than what is stated in your recipe will produce a cakey bar – not a chewy one. Too large a pan will give a dry brittle result. Use your muffin tins to make individual servings and top with ice cream.
