🍪 Pistachio Pudding Sugar Cookie Bars 🌿  

A deliciously soft and festive treat your family will love. Perfect for gatherings or a simple dessert to brighten your day!  



🍽️ Ingredients 🍽️  

- 🧂 17.5 oz Betty Crocker sugar cookie mix  
- 🧈 1/2 cup butter, softened  
- 🥚 2 large eggs  
- 💚 3.4 oz pistachio instant pudding mix  



🧑‍🍳 Directions 🧑‍🍳  

1. Preheat Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking.  
2. Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the sugar cookie mix and instant pistachio pudding mix. Stir to ensure everything blends together evenly.  
3. Add the Wet Ingredients: To the dry mix, add the softened butter and eggs. Use a hand or stand mixer to combine everything into a dough. The mixture should be well incorporated and slightly sticky.  
4. Spread the Dough: Transfer the dough to the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula or your fingers to press the dough evenly across the bottom of the pan.  
5. Bake: Place the pan in your preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Avoid overbaking to retain that soft and chewy texture.  
6. Cool Completely: Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares.
