Sometimes you don’t have 40 hundred minutes to create a treat that is both delicious and impressive. I mean, I know I don’t… Well, sometimes I do. But I just do that to impress you. But on any given Tuesday it’s nice to have a cute and yummy treat in your back pocket, that isn’t chocolate chip cookies or brownies… You know? I mean, not that there’s anything wrong with brownies or chocolate chips cookies… But you know. YOU know. So let’s get simple and cute. Cute and simple. People either love or hate candy corn. So these bars basically solve that whole situation. They look like candy corn, but taste like sugar cookies. Win. Candy Corn Sugar Cookie Bars. Honestly, you most likely have all the ingredients for these in your kitchen right now. And these make a ton of bars, so not only are you impressing…but you’re impressing a honk-load of people. Gah, this keeps getting better. These are eggs. In case you forgot what they looked like… You’ll need four of them. I also used this Buttery Sweet Dough Bakery Emulsion in place of vanilla. You don’t have to, vanilla would be fine..but this emulsion is totally amazing. You can use it anywhere you would use extract in baking. It adds something special. I’m serious. You need it. When you make the dough, divide it in half. Color half of it yellow and half of it orange. LIne a 9×13 baking pan with foil that’s sprayed with cooking spray. Press the orange in first and then the yellow. It’s a little sticky, so I encourage you to lick your fingers off. Once it’s baked…which only takes about 10 minutes it will look like this… Let it cool off and whip up a simple frosting. You could even use canned frosting, but I really think you should make your own. You’ve come this far. Then just slice them up. I like cutting them into triangles because…duh. You’re done. I also heard that Kristan was making some Candy Corn Bark over at Confessions of a Cookbook Queen today. I’m thinking you should go check it out.
