Baking cookies for Christmas is one of my favorite holiday activities. These peppermint bark bars are sure to be a crowd pleaser at all of those cookie exchange parties!

Ingredients:

• 2 cups chopped peppermint bark
• 2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 cup softened butter
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 large eggs
• Pinch of salt

Instructions: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease 15x10-inch jelly roll pan. Combine flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl. Beat butter, sugars and vanilla in large mixer bowl. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add in flour mixture. Stir in peppermint bark morsels. Spread into prepared pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool in pan. Cut into bars.
