Bar cookies should be cooled in their baking pan on a cooling rack. Use a sharp knife to cut the bars in the pan into rectangles, squares, diamonds or other shapes. The following guidelines for the number and size of the bars a recipe will make are approximate. Using a thin, narrow metal spatula, remove bars from pan.
NOTE: Completely cooled single-layer bar cookies (like brownies) can be turned out of their baking pan onto a cutting board, then cut into rectangles, squares, diamonds or other shapes.
