Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan with butter or baking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine softened butter with brown sugar and granulated sugar. Beat until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add eggs, sour cream, and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture. Beat until fully incorporated.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add this to the wet ingredients; mix until just combined.
  5. Spread the thick batter evenly into the prepared baking pan. Sprinkle a mix of cinnamon and sugar on top.
  6. Place the baking pan in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown. A toothpick inserted should come out clean.
  7. Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
  8. Prepare the frosting by mixing powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  9. Spread the creamy frosting generously over the cooled bars. Slice into squares or rectangles for serving.
  10. Serve warm or at room temperature, enjoying with coffee or tea if desired.

Notes

Use room temperature ingredients for better mixing. Avoid overmixing to maintain softness. Cool completely before frosting. Customize with mix-ins like chocolate chips or nuts, but avoid overloading the batter. Monitor baking time closely.
