Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a standard rimmed cookie sheet.

Cream softened butter and sugar in a bowl until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla, mixing well.

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and baking soda. Gradually mix into the butter-sugar mixture.

Press the dough into the greased cookie sheet evenly. Bake for approximately 15 minutes.

Beat softened butter for the frosting until smooth, adding milk, almond extract, and food coloring. Gradually incorporate powdered sugar.

Once cooled, frost the cookie bars generously and decorate with sprinkles.

Allow frosting to set slightly, then cut into squares or rectangles for serving.
