Recipe Instructions

In the bowl of your stand mixer, attach the paddle attachment and let’s get whipping! Throw in the butter and sugar, and let them have a whirl until they become light and fluffy. It usually takes around 2 minutes.
Now it’s time to crack those eggs and add them to the party. Beat them together with the buttery-sugary goodness for about 30 seconds. We want them to mingle and become one harmonious mixture. Next up, add in the sour cream and vanilla, and let the mixer work its magic to combine everything. It’s like a smooth and creamy symphony in the making.
Now, add the flour, baking powder, and salt. Now, switch the mixer to low and let it do its thing until everything is beautifully combined.
Grab that dough and spread it evenly in your buttered pan. Make sure it feels right at home, all cozy and snug. Pop it in the oven and let the magic happen for about 16-20 minutes. We want the dough to set but still stay light in color. Keep an eye on it, because we don’t want to over bake.
Let the dough cool down completely. Once it’s cool and refreshed, it’s time to bring on the frosting and sprinkles.
Grab a sharp knife and cut your creation into bars. You can make them as big or as small as you like. It’s like deciding the size of the dance floor for your taste buds. Serve ’em up, watch everyone’s eyes light up, and get ready to savor each delicious bite.
