Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ½ cup unsalted butter very soft
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • ½ cup unsalted butter softened
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt
  • milk or cream optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  • Whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
  • Add the softened unsalted butter, large egg, and vanilla extract to the flour mixture and combine until a soft dough forms.
  • Press about two-thirds of the dough into the bottom of the prepared baking pan and refrigerate for about 15 minutes.
  • Mix the very soft unsalted butter, packed brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and all-purpose flour until a thick paste forms.
  • Spread the cinnamon filling evenly over the chilled base layer.
  • Crumble the remaining dough over the cinnamon filling to create a streusel-like topping.
  • Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan for about 30-40 minutes.
  • Prepare the cream cheese frosting by beating together the softened cream cheese and unsalted butter until smooth and fluffy.
  • Gradually add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt, mixing until light and fluffy.
  • Spread the cream cheese frosting generously over the cooled bars.
  • Slice into squares and enjoy!

Notes

  • Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for the best texture.
  • Don't skimp on the cinnamon for authentic flavor.
  • Using parchment paper helps with easy removal.
  • Let the bars cool completely before frosting.
  • Check the bars a few minutes before the suggested baking time.
