⅓cupLight butter substituteI used I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter, Light!
½cupGranulated sugar
1Egg
1tspVanilla extract
1 ¼cupAll-purpose flour
½tspBaking soda
¾tspCream of tartar
¼tspSalt
Cinnamon Sugar Topping
1tbspGranulated sugar
½tspCinnamon
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Make the cinnamon sugar and set aside. In a medium bowl, gently mix together the light butter substitute and the granulated sugar. (The substitute I used is rather soft, so I didn't have to soften it).
Once combined, add the egg and vanilla extract and stir to combine. Add the dry ingredients and gently fold everything until a dough forms. Do not overmix; stop mixing once the flour blends in. The dough will be slightly loose but still thick enough to spread.
Spread the dough into a greased or parchment-lined 9 x 9 baking dish. Once you have it in an even layer, scatter the cinnamon sugar mixture on top and gently press it into the dough to coat the entire surface.
Bake the snickerdoodle bars in the 350°F oven for 22 to 27 minutes or until thoroughly baked. Be careful not to overbake them because reduced-sugar treats tend to dry out quicker. It is okay if they look soft; a toothpick or knife inserted should come out pretty clean with just a few moist crumbs, and the bars should not look wet or shiny.
Slice into 12 even portions and enjoy!
Notes
