Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Cinnamon Roll Shortbread Bars
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×9-inch baking pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and superfine white sugar together until light and fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour and salt, then gradually add to the butter mixture.
- Press two-thirds of the dough into the baking pan and refrigerate for 15-30 minutes.
- Par-bake the crust for about 15 minutes until lightly golden.
- In a mixing bowl, combine softened butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla for the filling, then spread over the cooled crust.
- Roll out the remaining dough and place it over the filling, then sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
- Bake for an additional 30-35 minutes until golden brown.
- While cooling, prepare the cream cheese frosting and spread over the cooled bars.
- Lift out and slice into squares.

Notes
Chill the dough for best texture, and ensure even spreading of the cinnamon filling.
