Bar Cookies for the win!
Love a good bar cookie recipe? This cranberry bliss bar will be a huge hit! I absolutely love baking but I tend to be rather busy, especially during the holidays. I don’t always have time to sit around baking 4 different batches of cookies, one cookie sheet at a time. Or rolling out dough for homemade gingerbread men. Making the dough batter is the quick and easy part. The rolling, cutting, dropping, dipping and baking that take the most time.

Cranberry Bliss Bar Is a Delicious And Easy Bar Cookie Recipe!
I am a huge fan of white chocolate and these cranberry bliss bars are loaded with it! The blondie bar cookie on the bottom layer is loaded with white chocolate and cranberries. Then, the cream cheese frosting has MORE white chocolate in it. Top the whole think off with a drizzle of melted white chocolate and this is a delicious and decadent dessert recipe.
I will say that these bar cookies are super sweet. Cut them into fairly small pieces. I got 24 bars out of this recipe. You will have enough to pass out at the next cookie exchange. Or, just hoard them all for yourself! I certainly hoarded quite a few!
When I was doing some Christmas shopping at Target last week I stopped into Starbucks for a coffee and saw a tray of these cranberry bliss bars sitting in the display case. The looked so simple and festive I just had to give them a try. There are tons of cranberry bliss bar copycat recipes online but I sort of merged a few that I found that looked good. The end results were delicious!

I can honestly say I’ve never had cranberries in a cookie. I like them, but have never experienced them like this.
Cranberries would make me feel like I’m eating fruit & staying healthy!
How important is the orange zest really? I never have an orange or lemon on hand when a recipe calls for “zest”.
Those bars look amazing!! Cookie bars are one of my favorite holiday treats!
My oh my do those look really good! I need to pick up the stuff to make these very soon!
This looks amazing. Quick question though – the blondie layer calls for coarsely chopped white chocolate but I don’t see what to do with that white chocolate in the instructions. I assume it gets mixed in at the same time as the dried cranberries. Is that correct?
yes, just add it in with the cranberries!
Terrific – thanks!
