Since she was a toddler, Gemma has shown a love for all things baking. Though we’d let her help out here and there, it wasn’t until recently that she’s really wanted to get involved in whatever I’m making. So when I whipped out the ingredients for this recipe, you know she was all in. If you’re lucky enough to not lose half of the ingredients in the process, involving your little ones in the making of these sweet treats makes it even sweeter.

The sprinkles in this recipe are really what make this dessert truly special. Not only do they add the most beautiful pop of color, but the slight crunch it adds to the cookie cause for it to standout from the rest. If you’ve been following Weelicious for a while, then you know I’m all about dye-free anything. I used my favorite dye-free sprinkle brand to really bring this recipe to the next level, which I linked above as well!

    I have baked these cookie bars for work events, baby showers, birthdays, and church gatherings and truly not a crumb is left every time. I love changing up the chocolate candies and sprinkles to match the holiday/event; this makes it even more fun and a feast for the eyes too! They have the most delicious flavor and perfect soft crumb plus a delightful crunch from the sprinkles. Thank you for this *Gem*ma of a recipe!!

    1. I’m SO happy to hear this!! Thanks for the kind comment. Great idea switching up the candies and sprinkles to match the event!

  2. These were yummy! Not too overly sweet! After 30 minutes in the oven though they were still seriously gooey! So I turned the oven off and let them sit in with foil covered for another 15 minutes and they were done. A delicious treat for our snow day!
