Cozy Chai Latte Cookie Bars

Instructions

1. 1Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment, leaving an overhang on two sides for easy lifting.
2. 2In a large bowl, whisk the melted butter and brown sugar until smooth and glossy.
3. 3Whisk in the egg, cooled chai tea, and vanilla until fully combined.
4. 4In a second bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, and chai spice blend.
5. 5Add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients and stir just until no dry streaks remain. Fold in 1/2 cup of the white chocolate chips.
6. 6Spread the dough evenly in the prepared pan. Bake 22 to 26 minutes, until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
7. 7Cool the bars completely in the pan on a wire rack.
8. 8Whisk the powdered sugar with 1 tablespoon half-and-half (add more as needed) until thick but pourable. Drizzle over the cooled bars and scatter the remaining white chocolate chips on top.
9. 9Lift the slab out with the parchment, cut into 16 squares, and serve.
