15 Back to School Cookie Bars

15 Back to School Cookie Bars-perfect for packing in a lunch or as an after-school treat! 

Hello everyone, it’s Hayley!

Summer is quickly winding down, and it’s finally time for the kiddos to go back to school (much to the elation of their patient parents)!

I remember as a kid, always having mixed emotions about this time of year. I was excited and relieved to go back to daily structure and schedules, but also anxious and nervous about different teachers and making new friends. That first week back to school can be a big adjustment period for kids and they need some easing into it. What could be better than a little extra TLC by the way of an enticing afternoon snack? Having a special after school treat to look forward to always made the return to school a little bit easier. All kids love cookies bars — they’re easy to make, freezable, and will put a smile on your kid’s face. And we all know a happy kid means a happy parent, so I’ve found 15 delectable bars guaranteed to wither away any back to school blues!
