How to Make 5 Layer Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare your 9x9 inch baking pan by greasing it lightly or lining it with parchment paper.
  3. In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Arrange the cookie layers in the prepared pan according to the layer order specified in the ingredient list, slightly pressing down to compact them.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the center is set.
  8. Let the cookies cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. This will allow the layers to set properly.
  9. Once cooled, lift out with parchment paper and cut into squares.
