Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Pistachio Dream Cookie Bars
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Gather all your ingredients for a smooth baking process.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine softened unsalted butter, large eggs, and pistachio pudding mix. Beat the mixture on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Gradually add the sugar cookie mix into your creamed mixture, stirring with a spatula or wooden spoon until a sticky dough forms, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Grease a 10 x 15-inch baking sheet with cooking spray or butter.
  5. Evenly press the sticky cookie dough into the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Place the baking sheet in your preheated oven and bake for 18-22 minutes, looking for lightly golden edges.
  7. Once baked, allow the bars to cool completely on a wire rack.
  8. For an optional touch, melt some chocolate and drizzle it over your cooled bars.
