Instructions

1
|
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
2
|
Line a 9" square pan with parchment paper.
3
|
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter, sugar, and salt on medium speed until light & fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
4
|
Add the egg, egg yolk, vanilla, and oil, and mix until well combined.
5
|
Add the flour and cocoa powder, and mix on low speed until fully combined.
6
|
Transfer the cookie dough to the prepared square pan, and use an offset spatula to spread it into an even layer.
7
|
Bake the sugar cookie bars for about 25 minutes or until they appear set.
8
|
Allow the sugar cookie bars to cool in the pan completely.
9
|
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low-medium heat.
10
|
Once melted, turn the heat off, then add the chocolate, heavy cream, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, salt, and vanilla. Stir constantly until everything is melted and fully combined.
11

Pour the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a medium bowl. Place in the fridge to cool, stirring every 10 minutes or so until it reaches a spreadable consistency. Leave at room temperature until ready to use.

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Room Temperature Butter Magic 🧈
    Bring unsalted butter to room temperature before creaming with sugar to achieve maximum volume and a light, fluffy cookie base that bakes evenly.
  • Dutch-Process Cocoa Blooming Technique 🫗
    Bloom the Dutch-process cocoa powder in hot water or warm heavy cream for 1-2 minutes before mixing to intensify the chocolate flavor and eliminate any bitter notes.
  • Egg Yolk Enrichment Strategy 🥚
    Use both whole eggs and an extra egg yolk to create a richer, more tender crumb while the yolk adds luxurious moisture to the bars without making them cake-like.
  • Fudge Frosting Cooling Control ❄️
    Let the dark chocolate fudge frosting cool to 85-90°F before spreading on cooled bars to prevent melting the base while ensuring it sets with a perfect glossy finish and clean edges.
  • Sprinkle Application Timing ✨
    Apply chocolate sprinkles to the frosting while still slightly warm (within 2-3 minutes) so they adhere properly and create an elegant, professional appearance.
