Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups All Purpose Flour
  • 1 1/2 cups Cake Flour
  • 2 tsp. cornstarch
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1 cup cold, unsalted butter (16 Tbsp.) cubed
  • 1 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 large egg yolks (no whites, just the yolks)
  • 1 tsp. cake batter extract
  • 25 Golden Oreos, divided
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F.
  • Whisk the All-purpose flour, cake flour, cornstarch, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl. Set aside.
    2 1/2 cups All Purpose Flour, 1 1/2 cups Cake Flour, 2 tsp. cornstarch, 1 tsp. baking soda, 1 tsp. baking powder, 1 tsp. salt
  • Place the butter and sugar into the bowl of a stand mixer and secure the paddle attachement. Turn the mixer on medium and cream the butter for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.
    1 cup cold, unsalted butter (16 Tbsp.) cubed, 1 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • Add in the eggs, egg yolks and cake batter extract and blend until mixed. If any of the butter gets stuck on the paddle attachment or sides of the bowl, use a rubber spatula to knock it off.
    2 large eggs, 2 large egg yolks (no whites, just the yolks), 1 tsp. cake batter extract
  • Turn the mixture down to a slow setting and gradually add in the flour mixture. I add in about 1/4 cup at a time.
  • Add in 15 of the Oreos, white chocolate chips and sprinkles and mix just until combined. Turn the machine off.
    25 Golden Oreos, divided, 1 cup white chocolate chips, 1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles
  • Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with non-stick baking spray. Press dough evenly into the pan using clean hands or the back of a measuring cup.
  • Break up the remaining 10 Oreos and press onto the top of the dough.
  • Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out with a few moist crumbs on it. Cookie bars will continue to cook in pan once you remove from the oven, so I recommend pulling them out before the edges begin to brown too much.
  • Cool bars completely before cutting into squares and enjoy!

Notes

  • Be careful not to over bake. We don't like dry baked goods!
  • Freezing instructions: cool bars completely, cut into squares, and freeze for up to 3 months in a freezer safe container. You can add a layer of parchment paper in-between bars if preferred.
  • Sprinkles: I recommend using regular sprinkles (aka “jimmies”) in the cookie bars, not nonpareils (the little balls). Those will bleed their color and turn the sugar cookie dough green/purple/brown.
