Let’s Make it Together
Preheat Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures even baking while you prepare your batter.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and cinnamon until well combined. You want those flavors mingling nicely.
Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract into the dry mix. Stir gently until moist but be careful not to overmix—this keeps your bliss bars fluffy!
Pour into Baking Dish: Spread the batter evenly into a greased 9×13 inch baking dish using a spatula. Make sure it’s nice and smooth on top for even baking.
Bake Until Golden Brown: Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until golden brown on top. The aroma will fill your kitchen with sweet anticipation!
Prepare Glaze While Cooling: As the bars cool slightly, mix powdered sugar with milk until smooth. Drizzle this dreamy glaze over warm bliss bars once they are out of the oven.
Enjoy every last bite of these scrumptious Cinnamon Roll Bliss Bars! You may find yourself making them more often than you’d planned—no regrets here!
