Yield: 16 servings (serving size: 1 bar)

Ingredients

• 1/2  cup  granulated sugar
• 1/2  cup  packed brown sugar

Preheat oven to 350°.

Beat sugars and butter at medium speed of a mixer until well-blended (about 4 minutes). Add egg whites and vanilla; beat well. Lightly spoon the flour into dry measuring cups, and level with a knife. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt; stir well with a whisk. Add flour mixture to sugar mixture; beat at low speed just until blended.
