Covid Cookie Bars - big batch



I made these today on my 53rd birthday while under quarantine for the Covid19 aka Corona virus breakout. I had to use what was in my pantry. I only had 2 sticks of butter and wheat flour. And a smaller regular size cookie sheet. They were a little well done around the sides but using the bigger 17x12 pan the original recipe calls for should resolve that. So I had to make some adjustments with what I had but they turned out good. Hence me naming them...Covid Cookie Bars. 😂😋🤷‍♀️
