Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Line the bottom of an 8×8 inch square non-stick baking pan with parchment paper.
In a large bowl or stand mixer, combine the dry ingredients.
Add butter, eggs, and vanilla to the bowl and mix until a soft dough forms and then fold in the Valentine's sprinkles.
Spread the dough evenly into the prepared baking pan.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool completely.
Prepare the frosting and decorating ingredients.
Use the back of a spoon or butter knife to spread frosting over the cooled cookie bars.
Top with additional Valentine sprinkles and candy hearts.
Cut into 2-inch bars for serving.

Notes

For a fun twist, add chocolate chips or nuts to the dough.
Ensure the cookie bars are completely cool before frosting to prevent melting.
Store leftover bars in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
