Friends sometimes ask me to make these for wedding receptions. For a fancier presentation, I cut the bars into triangle shapes and drizzle white chocolate over each one individually. -Erika Busz, Kent, Washington

These blondies were really good! They were chewy and gooey, with the perfect amount of sweetness. The cranberries added a nice tartness that balanced out the sweetness of the white chocolate. I would definitely make these again.
