Gluten-Free Holiday Bliss Cookie Bars Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Gluten-Free Holiday Bliss Cookie Bars Recipe). Using a basic cookie recipe, I revised it to be gluten-free and instead of the soft cake-like texture that Starbucks® Cranberry Bliss Bars have, these have a chewy, cookie-like texture. Also, I reduced the sugar so they're not quite so sweet.
