  Special Touch
Cut bars into triangles for a new shape on your holiday cookie tray. Or cut with small, deep cookie cutters in heart, star and bell shapes to give a festive touch. Spray cookie cutters with cooking spray for easier cutting.

Success Tip
The secret to cutting perfect bars is to line the pan with aluminum foil so you can lift out the baked bars. Grease the foil as directed in the recipe.
