These easy homemade gingerbread bars are like Christmas on a plate! Dense and chewy, sweet but not too sweet, with just the perfect amount of spice. Yum!
I’m not quite sure how to explain how utterly delicious these ridiculously easy gingerbread bars really are. They are like heaven–or Christmas–on a plate! Dense and chewy, sweet but not too sweet, with just the perfect amount of spice. Seriously. Try them. Today. You won’t regret it.
As an aside, the crystallized ginger sprinkled on top is a nice touch, but totally optional. I found mine here.
Step 1: Preheat oven to 350 degrees; grease pan and set aside. (Use a 9×13″ for thin bars or 8×8″ for thicker bars)
Step 2: Beat together sugars, butter, and molasses until well blended, about 30 seconds.
Step 3: Add egg and vanilla; beat until mixed.
Step 4: Add flour, spices, baking soda, baking powder, and salt; mix until just blended.
Step 5: Spread batter into prepared pan; bake approximately 25-35 minutes at 350 degrees (less time for thin bars, more time for thicker bars), or until knife inserted in center comes out clean; let cool.
Step 6: OPTIONAL: Frost with Browned Butter Cream Cheese Icing and, if desired, sprinkle with chopped candied ginger.
This super easy bar recipe has all the flavors of the holiday season!

Yum. Bars are so much easier than cookies. But with these spicy flavors they can totally get you in the holiday mood w/o too much work.
