Candy Corn Sugar Cookie Bars

Instructions

1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a cookie sheet (12"x17" or 13"x18") by spraying with cooking spray.

2. In the bowl of a stand mixer, or using a hand held mixer, cream butter and sugar until light & fluffy. This will take 2-3 minutes.

3. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing after each egg. Add vanilla and mix well.

4. In a separate bowl combine flour, salt, baking soda and stir with a whisk to combine. Add to the wet mixture and mix just until combined.

5. Divide the dough in half and place each half in a bowl. In one bowl, use the yellow food coloring to color the dough yellow. The easiest way is to use a hand held mixer to combine it. Color the other half of the dough orange; 3-4 drops red dye + about 8 drops yellow dye to make orange.

6. Drop spoonfuls of the yellow dough all over the cookie sheet and then piece them together. Drop spoonfuls of the orange dough all over the yellow dough and piece together to form the 2nd layer.
