Bar Cookie Recipes consist of batter or other ingredients that are poured or pressed into a pan (sometimes in multiple layers), and cut into cookie-sized pieces after baking. Brownies are an example of a batter-type bar cookie, while Rice krispie treats are a bar cookie recipe that doesn't require baking. At annsgoodies.com we are starting to create a large collection of bar cookie recipes.
