Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup (2 sticks) butter, melted
1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon orange extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup white chocolate chips
3/4 cup Craisins
8 oz. cream cheese, (softened)
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon orange extract
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup Craisins, (roughly chopped)
2 squares baking chocolate or almond bark, (melted)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 15x10 or 13x9 inch jelly roll pan or rimmed cookie sheet with parchment paper. *see notes
  • Beat together melted butter and brown sugar over medium speed with an electric mixer. Add in eggs, 1 tsp orange extract, and 1 tsp vanilla extract and beat until mixed well. Add in ground ginger, baking powder, salt, and flour, beating until just blended. Don't overmix.
  • Stir in white chocolate chips and Craisins by hand. Spread evenly into the bottom of prepared pan. Bake in preheated oven for 18-22 minutes until set and golden brown at the edges. Don't overbake or bars will be hard. Remove from oven and place pan on a wire rack to cool. Allow bars to cool completely before topping with frosting.
  • To make the frosting, beat cream cheese and powdered sugar together with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Add 1/2 tsp orange extract and 1/2 tsp vanilla extract and mix well. Top cooled bars with frosting. Sprinkle with chopped Craisins and drizzle white chocolate over the top with a fork. I dip my fork into the chocolate then shake it gently over the top of the bars to create little streaks. You can either slice right away and enjoy, or place the bars in the refrigerator for about an hour (what I like to do) to help them set up before cutting. Cut into triangles and enjoy!

STARBUCKS COPYCAT CRANBERRY BLISS BAR



Starbucks Copycat Cranberry Bliss Bar image

Todd Wilbur of the famous Top Secret Recipe clones posts a demo of this recipe on his site www.topsecretrecipes.com. Starbucks only brings these out during a limited part of the year. These used to be the only pastry I would buy from them. They are a soft triangle of white chocolate and cranberry cake covered with creamy lemon frosting and dried cranberries. Make sure you don't substitute the crystalized ginger for powdered ginger!

Time 35m

Yield 16 bars, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

3/4 cup butter, softened
1 1/4 cups light brown sugar, packed
3 eggs
2 tablespoons crystallized ginger, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 cup dried cranberries, diced
4 ounces white chocolate, cut into chunks (I like Ghirardelli)
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
3 cups powdered sugar
4 teaspoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup dried cranberries, diced
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon milk
2 teaspoons vegetable shortening

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Make cake by beating butter and brown sugar with an electric mixer until smooth. Add eggs, vanilla, ginger, and salt and beat well. Gradually mix in flour until smooth. Mix 3/4 cup diced dried cranberries and white chocolate into the batter by hand. Pour batter into a well-greased 9x13-inch baking pan and spread evenly across the pan. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until cake is light brown on top. Allow cake to cool.
  • Make frosting by combining softened cream cheese, 3 cups powdered sugar, lemon juice and vanilla extract in a medium bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. When the cake has cooled, spread frosting over the top of cake.
  • Sprinkle1/4 cup of diced cranberries over the frosting on the cake.
  • Whisk together 1/2 cup powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon milk, and shortening. Drizzle icing over cranberries in a sweeping motion or use a pastry bag with a fine tip. Or you could even put the icing in a zip topped bag trim a corner off the bottom and use it as you would the pastry bag.
  • Cover the cake and let it chill for at least two hours, then slice the cake lengthwise (the long way) through the middle. Slice the cake across the width three times making a total of eight rectangular slices. Slice each of those rectangles diagonally creating 16 triangular slices.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor. Frozen cranberries can also be used, but they should be thawed and drained before using.
  • Do not overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the bars tough.
  • Press the dough firmly into the pan. This will help to prevent the bars from crumbling.
  • Bake the bars until the edges are golden brown and the center is set. Overbaking will dry out the bars.
  • Let the bars cool completely before cutting them. This will help to prevent them from falling apart.
  • Store the bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. They can also be stored in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Conclusion:

Cranberry bliss bars are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect cranberry bliss bars that everyone will love.
