Tips:

  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies until they are golden brown. The cookies are done baking when they are golden brown around the edges and the tops are set.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly.

Conclusion:

These mincemeat bar cookies are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for the holiday season. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With their sweet and tangy flavor, these cookies are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
