Holy Moly Good Snickers Shortbread Bars

Shortbread Ingredients
½ cup butter, softened
¼ cup sugar
½ tsp vanilla
1 cup flour

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 325°. Line an 8" X 8" pan with parchment paper making sure there is paper over the edge. This will help when removing the bars from the pan.

2. Cream butter until light and fluffy. Add sugar, beating again until light and fluffy.

3. Add vanilla and mix. 

4. Add flour, ½ cup at a time. Make sure it is well combined and then add the rest of the flour. Mix well.

5. Dump dough into the prepared pan. Press down gently to the edges - don't pack it. (Laying a piece of wax paper over the dough before pressing down can assist with spreading and leveling.)

6. Bake at 325° for 12-15 minutes or until the top turns light brown Cool completely.
