For a richer flavor, consider using brown sugar instead of granulated sugar. Store the cooled bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week. They also freeze well for longer storage. Feel free to experiment with different toppings, such as chopped nuts or a light glaze.
