Can I use a different flavor of pudding mix?

Yes. Any instant pudding flavor substitutes directly for the pistachio pudding in the same 3.4 oz quantity. Butterscotch, vanilla, lemon, or chocolate pudding each produce a most completely different and most beautifully distinct flavor and color in the finished bar. Pistachio produces the most vibrant and the most conversation-starting green color.

Why are my bars crumbly?

Crumbly bars are almost always caused by one of two issues — overmixing the dough once the sugar cookie mix is added, or cutting the bars before they have cooled completely. Mix only until just combined and allow the bars to cool absolutely completely at room temperature before any cutting for the most beautifully intact and most cleanly sliced individual bars.

Can I make these bars gluten-free?

Yes. Use a gluten-free sugar cookie mix in the same quantity as the conventional sugar cookie mix. Ensure the pistachio pudding mix is also certified gluten-free. All other ingredients are naturally gluten-free, making this a most conveniently adaptable recipe for gluten-sensitive guests.
