Trying to figure out whether this is the general rule or a special case. Ashley Hernandez
Helpful, and the ordering advice alone is worth it.
Adding the eggs one at a time after creaming the butter and sugar is essential for building a stable emulsion so the bars don’t turn out greasy or dense. Sequence is everything in baking, and just as reviewing SHA256 Online info demonstrates how precise inputs dictate an outcome, stirring the baking soda into the flour layer before folding it all together ensures an even rise without overworking the gluten.
