Canada Day Sugar Cookie Bars
- FOR THE COOKIE DOUGH:
- 1/2 cups Margarine (I Used Dairy Free)
- 1 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1/2 cups Yoghurt (I Used Soy Yoghurt)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 2-1/4 cups All-purpose Flour
- 1/4 teaspoons Baking Soda
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- FOR THE GLOSSY ICING:
- 2 cups Icing Sugar
- 2 Tablespoons Corn Syrup
- 2 Tablespoons Milk (I Used Soy Milk)
- 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- For the cookie dough:
- Preheat oven to 375u0b0F. Line a 9x13 inch tray with foil or parchment paper. Grease with dairy-free cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, cream margarine and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in yoghurt and vanilla until well incorporated. Stir in flour, baking soda and salt just until dough comes together. It will be very thick, like cookie dough.
- Bake for 20 to 22 minutes in a preheated oven until the edges are golden. Cool completely before decorating and cutting.
- For the glossy icing:
- Combine all ingredients in a bowl and stir until well incorporated and smooth. It should have the consistency of cold thick honey and will be pourable but needs a spoon to spread. If it's too thick, add more soy milk in 1/2 teaspoon increments. If it becomes too runny, add more icing sugar.
- Notes:
- If you don't have yoghurt on hand, you can replace it with applesauce.
- You can use food colouring to tint the cookie dough or the icing.
