This sprinkle cookie bars recipe is made with Greek yogurt in the cookie bar dough and in the frosting, and is the perfect sweet treat to make for new neighbors, family and friends. They taste like the birthday cake cookie bars of your dreams and have the perfect soft crumb texture!

The best Sprinkle Cookie Bars Recipe

We recently moved and have new neighbors. As I was flipping through a new cookbook talking about how we should bake something to bring to the new neighbors, my son pointed at these cookie bars and said he wanted to make them (similar to when he wanted to make the chocolate chip oatmeal cookies with cherries).  So we made them, and he proudly walked them over to the new neighbors’ houses, it was so cute! If you’re looking for what to bring to new neighbors, these fun sprinkle cookie bars should be top of your list.

The cookbook this sprinkle cookie bar recipe is from? The Ultimate Cookie Handbook from blogger Tessa of Handle The Heat.  She self-published the beautiful book and I purchased it because I’ve always loved her recipes. This book is no exception – it is packed with great recipes and such awesome information.

What ingredients do I need to make sprinkle cookie bars?

  • All-purpose flour – I use all-purpose flour for this. You could use whole wheat flour instead (if using whole wheat flour, it will be a little denser so I’d recommend adding another egg.) You could make these sprinkle cookie bars gluten-free cookie bars by using this Bob’s Red Mill 1-to-1 gluten free baking flour.  It’s the one I’ve had the best results with.
  • Cornstarch – When used in baked goods, cornstarch adds a wonderful crumb texture and makes them chewy,
  • Baking powder & baking soda –  must-have leavening for baking recipes.
  • Fine sea salt – used in the cookies and the frosting.  It doesn’t have to be fancy – this one works great!
  • Unsalted butter – keep the butter at cool room temperature.  You’ll need some for the cookies and the frosting
  • Granulated sugar – used for sweetness in this recipe.
  • 2 large eggs – use one whole egg and one yolk only, at cool room temperature
  • Vanilla extract – vanilla is used in the cookies and frosting.  I use a good quality one like this!
  • Rainbow sprinkles – for all the fun in this recipe!  Use some to mix in and also some for sprinkling on top of the frosting. You could use natural sprinkles like this.
  • Powdered sugar – powdered sugar is what gives the frosting the light and airy fluffy quality.
  • Greek yogurt – Used in the cookies and frosting.  For the cookies, feel free to use cream cheese in the cookie bar dough and substitute heavy cream in the frosting in place of Greek yogurt if you’d prefer. Greek yogurt in these cookie bars gives a soft crumb texture.
  • Almond extract – optional, but a delicious addition.  This is always my favorite brand to use when it comes to extracts. The addition of almond extract in the buttercream gives it a more classic confetti cake flavor.

How do I make birthday cake sprinkle cookie bars?

  1. Preheat the oven to 350.  Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment or foil, leaving an overhang on all sides.  Spray with nonstick cooking spray.

  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda and salt.

  3. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer on medium-high speed to beat the butter, Greek yogurt (or cream cheese) and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.  Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla and beat until well-combined.  Slowly beat in the flour mixture.  Stir in the sprinkles with a rubber spatula until just combined.

  4. Press the dough into the prepared pan.

  5. Bake for 25 minutes, or until lightly golden brown on top.  Place the pan on a wire rack and let cool completely.

Fun and easy sprinkle cookie bars

How do I make the frosting for these confetti cookie bars?

  1. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer on medium-high speed to beat the butter until creamy, about 2 minutes.  With the mixer on low speed, add the powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons of cream (or Greek Yogurt), vanilla extract, almond extract and salt.  Increase speed to high and beat for 3 minutes, or until light and fluffy.  Add more Greek Yogurt (or cream) to thin the frosting or more powdered sugar to thicken it to your desired consistency.

  2. Remove the bars from the pan using the parchment overhang.  Frost with a thick layer of frosting.  Garnish with sprinkles before cutting into squares.  Serve and enjoy!

What is the best way to store cookie bars?

  • Serve same day, or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
  • These sprinkle cookie bars also freeze very well, make them, freeze them (without the frosting) and then when ready to enjoy let them come to room temperature (by removing them from the freezer and letting them sit on the counter for half an hr) and make the frosting, frost and enjoy!

I would make this sprinkle cookie bars recipe over and over and not change a thing!  The Greek yogurt substitute was a great choice and these bars never last long and become a favorite of anyone who has tried them.  A total winner of a recipe and so fun to make and look at!

Notes

I used Greek yogurt instead of cream cheese (in the cookie bars) and instead of heavy cream (in the frosting).  The yogurt helped cut some of the sweetness.

    These are so so good. Made them and used all natural sprinkles and now the family calls them the fancy cookies. They loved them! Between freezer chocolate chip cookies and these sugar cookies you made me look like a real baker!

First, I ran out of coffee beans 😳😩😢

Then, as I was washing dishes late at night, my French press slipped through my hands and shattered 🙀😭😫

I just kept repeating a German phrase my mom used to say “sherben bringen Glück” which means “shards bring luck” (it’s usually applied to like porcelain- which is why plates and mugs are thrown on the ground ahead of weddings... but my mom would apply it to glass/plates/whatever broke) 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So...I’m going to go ahead and make some sweet cream, bust out my old coffee machine until the new French press arrives <-because apparently now I’m someone who makes French press coffee every morning!
