SUGAR-FREE HOLIDAY COOKIE BARS

🎄 SUGAR-FREE HOLIDAY COOKIE BARS (Everyone’s Favorite!) 🎄

If you’re looking for a fail-proof sugar-free dessert that everyone will love, these holiday cookie bars are it! This year I baked around 100 dozen sugar-free cookies for friends, family, coworkers, and neighbors… and these bars were the #1 most-requested treat out of everything I made. Even people who don’t normally eat sugar-free desserts said they tasted just like classic buttery cookie bars!

What I love about this recipe is how simple it is: one bowl, pantry staples, and no complicated steps. If you’re hosting parties, making cookie boxes, or just want something sweet without the sugar crash, these bars are perfect. They bake up soft, chewy, golden, and impossible to resist.

Another huge bonus? They freeze beautifully. I always make a double batch, let them cool completely, cut into bars, and freeze them in an airtight container. When you’re ready to serve, just let them sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes—they taste freshly baked every single time. This makes them a total lifesaver during the busy holiday season!

Below is the recipe so you can save it, share it, and make it again and again. 💛
