FAQ:
Q: Can I substitute brown sugar with white sugar?
A: Brown sugar adds moisture and depth of flavor; white sugar will yield a different texture and less rich taste.
Q: How do I know when the bars are done?
A: The edges should be golden and the center should be set but still slightly soft when you gently press it.
Q: Can I make these bars gluten-free?
A: This recipe as-is doesn’t contain flour, so it’s naturally gluten-free.
