Cool and Serve

Remove from the oven and let the bars cool in the pan for about 15 minutes. Then, lift them out using the parchment paper overhang and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Refrigerate the bars for at least 2 hours to allow them to firm up. When ready to serve, cut the bars into squares and dust with a sprinkle of ground cinnamon, if desired.
