Time-saving Tips

• Melt butter in the microwave to save time.
• Use a bench scraper to cut the blondies perfectly.
• If you use unsalted butter, you can add ¼ teaspoon of salt if you wish. Salt in cookies is a matter of personal taste.
• Keep a close eye on the baking process and use a toothpick or skewer to check for doneness. It should come out clean when blondies are done.

Storage

Store Easter cookie bars in an airtight container.
