Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Add grated orange zest to the cookie dough for a bright flavor twist.
  • tip 2
    We tested this easy cookie bar baked in a 9-inch pan with a chopped white chocolate bar. Substitute same measurement amount of white vanilla baking chips for chopped white chocolate, if desired.
  • tip 3
    Try adding ground ginger instead of ground cinnamon to the cookie dough for a different spice.
