Sugar Cookie Bars

I didn't get around to making my usual cut out sugar cookies this year, so I improvised and ended up making sugar cookie bars thanks to a recipe I found on Pinterest.  I dyed the icing a light green and then used a toothpick to sketch out a Christmas tree.  I used green sugar sprinkles to fill in the tree and trimmed it with a red garland using some red icing (Wilton's).

 - I didn't have heavy cream for the frosting so I used skim milk.  It ended up being a bit too runny when I used the full 1/4 C so next time if I use skim I'll just end up using a few teaspoons shy of 1/4 C.  I stuck the bars in the fridge so that the icing would firm up.

 - These bars are absolutely delicious and so easy.  I may be making these for a few more years until Anna is old enough to help out with the cookie decorating...
