Dessert Bar Recipes

There’s just something about dessert bars. They’re easy to make, easy to serve, and always a hit.

I’ve been baking bar cookies and squares for decades, and they’ve never let me down.

Whether it’s a batch of cheesecake filled lemon bars or something rich and chocolatey, these recipes are perfect when you need a sweet treat without a lot of prep. Most can be made ahead, travel well, and slice up beautifully for parties, potlucks, or a simple family dessert.
