have you ever had a cranberry bliss bar from starbucks? they are, well…blissful.
a couple years ago my mom found the recipe and we’ve been enjoying these treats every holiday season.
recipe:
-
cake
3/4 c. softened butter
1 1/4 c. light brown sugar
3 eggs
2 Tbs minced candied or crystallized ginger
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 c. flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
3/4-1 cup diced, dried cranberries {i get them from trader joes}
4 oz white chocolate, chopped {good quality white choc. chips work fine too}
bake in a jelly roll pan, lined with parchment paper
at 350 for 14-17 minutes
frosting
8 oz cream cheese
6 tsp fresh orange juice + orange zest from whole orange
1 tsp vanilla
4 c. powdered sugar
sprinkle additional chopped cranberries on top of frosting.
this makes a ton of frosting, so feel free not to use all of it.
