How to Make Southern Pineapple Bar Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Press half of the dough into the prepared baking pan.
- In a medium bowl, combine the crushed pineapple, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Spread evenly over the crust.
- Crumble the remaining dough evenly over the pineapple filling.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into bars. For best results, chill for at least 30 minutes before serving.
