Bar Dessert Baking Tips

With these helpful how-to articles, you’ll learn how to make perfect bar desserts every time.

1.

Measure your flour correctly

It is so important to measure your flour correctly for bar desserts. Too much flour can result in dry, dense, crumbly, tough and even rubbery desserts.

2.

Use a metal baking pan for your bar desserts

To make sure your blondies, brownies, or cookie bars cook completely and hold their shape while remaining soft and a little gooey, I highly recommend a quality metal baking pan, like from Fat Daddio’s or USA Pan. Not glass or ceramic, as those materials take longer to heat up and cook. You also won’t get those ultra chewy edge pieces with glass or ceramic!

If you must use glass, add about 10 to 15 minutes to the baking times.

3.

Don’t overbake!

Bar desserts like blondies, cookie bars, and brownies are meant to be a little gooey and soft. You can remove them from the oven just before they look like they’re completely done because the residual heat of the oven and the pan will continue to cook them.
