It’s Tip Friday on Marilyn’s Treats. And todays tip is Cutting Into Bars.
Cutting Even and Smooth Bars
Most bar cookies are baked in a square or rectangular pan. The simplest way to divide these cookies evenly is by cutting the sheet of baked dough in half, then cutting the halves in half again. When using uncoated metal pans, we’ve found a bench knife is a wonderful cutting implement for bar cookies. The handle on top allows you to cut right to the edge of the pan, a more awkward proposition when you’re using a regular knife. For pans with non-stick coating, plastic cutting implements are a better choice. Or use your plastic bowl scraper.

Great tip. I use my bench scraper for heaps of things. I’d be lost without it.
Thanks Maureen! Good to see you and sorry to take so long to answer. I have slowed way down on blogging for a while. Hope this finds you well!
I do hope this finds you feeling better Marilyn. Been thinking about you. Happy Thanksgiving.
Thanks Michelle. Coming back slowly, but treatment takes it out of me!
