How to Make Cafe Au Lait Bars
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Lightly grease a 13x9 inch baking pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs until light, fluffy, and pale yellow (about 3 minutes with an electric mixer).
- Gradually add the sugar, beating until the mixture is glossy and thick (about 5 minutes).
- Beat in the melted butter and vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Set aside 1 1/2 cups of the batter.
- In a small bowl, stir together the instant coffee crystals and heavy cream until dissolved.
- Add the coffee cream mixture to the remaining batter and mix until well incorporated.
- Spread the coffee batter evenly into the prepared pan.
- Spoon the reserved batter over the coffee batter. Using a knife or toothpick, swirl the batters together to create a marble effect.
- Sprinkle with chopped nuts.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. Dust with powdered sugar or add chocolate chips before baking for an extra touch.
