Notes:
This recipe has already been doubled & dough fills Kitchen Aid mixer bowl.
To keep the sugar content down (even if only slightly) I make these with 1/2 the amount of sugar called for, and substitute Splenda for the other half.
To make bar cookies with this recipe: Line two 9x13 pans with parchment paper. Press 1/2 dough into each pan to a uniform thickness. Baked at 350 for 16 minutes.
