- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 1/2 cup sugar
- 2/3 cup brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 TBSP vanilla
- 3 cups flour
- 1 tsp baking soda

Vanilla Frosting

Add butter to a mixing bowl, stir in both granulated and brown sugar and mix until combined. Add eggs and vanilla, continue to mix.
In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Gradually add to the butter mixture. Press dough into a lined 9×13 pan and bake at 350 for 45 minutes. Allow to cool completely. Either cut into squares or use cookie cutter to press out egg-shaped bars.
