Dessert bars or simply bars or squares are a type of American bar cookie that has the texture of a firm cake or softer than usual cookie. They are prepared in a pan and then baked in the oven. They are cut into squares or rectangles. They are staples of bake sales and are often made for birthdays. They are especially popular during the holidays but many people eat them all year. Many coffee shops and bakeries also offer the treats.
