Go check them out & tell them that Amber @ Dessert Now, Dinner Later! sent you! So I decided to go the dessert route again for the swap & I picked their Snickerdoodle Bars.

These bars are absolutely delicious & so not good for you, but what delicious things are? They are darker & richer than a snickerdoodle cookie due to the use of brown sugar compared to white, so I have re-named them Cinnamon Brown Sugar Bars. I feel that resembles the flavors better than that of a snickerdoodle even though I know this recipe is repeatedly blogged by many as a snickerdoodle bar.

Anyway, if you want a super easy dessert that feeds a lot, this is perfect & is sure to cure your sugar cravings. My kids gobbled them up! Enjoy!
