Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
- 2 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 1/2 cup Butter (unsalted)
- 2 Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- 1 cup Powdered Sugar
- 1/2 cup Milk (or non-dairy milk)
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- Pinch of Salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Use a spatula to smooth the top.
- In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the batter. Using a knife or a toothpick, gently swirl it into the batter to create that signature cinnamon roll pattern.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. The edges should be slightly golden.
- Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the bars are cooling, whisk together powdered sugar, a splash of milk (or non-dairy milk), and a touch of vanilla until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more sugar or milk as needed.
- Once the bars are completely cool, drizzle the icing over the top. Let it set for a few minutes before slicing into squares.
