For a richer flavor, use browned butter in place of softened butter. Simply melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, cooking until it turns golden brown and smells nutty. Let it cool slightly before using. If you don't have cream of tartar, you can substitute with 1 teaspoon of lemon juice or white vinegar. Feel free to add chopped walnuts or pecans to the dough for added texture and flavor. These bars are best stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Feb 3, 2025I found that 25 minutes was a little too long in my oven, so I recommend checking them at 22 minutes.
