Tasty! It doesn’t tell you if the butter needs to be cold, but I assume so. Mine was softened, so the batter didn’t need kneading.also used brown sugar. I spread it in a 9x13 and froze for maybe 12 minutes before baking for about 27 minutes, and the bars were soft and buttery and crumbly. Would be good with pecans. Yum!
