  • Author: Lauren Baker
  • Total Time: 22 minute

Ingredients

– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1 cup rolled oats
– 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
– 1/2 cup granulated sugar
– 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
– 1 cup dried cranberries
– 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
– 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
– 1/4 cup powdered sugar
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 tablespoon milk (as needed for frosting)


Instructions

Creating these incredible Cranberry Bliss Bars involves a few simple steps. Follow this guide to ensure your success:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, granulated sugar, baking soda, and salt.
3. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the melted butter and mix until the dry ingredients are well combined and crumbly.
4. Incorporate Add-ins: Fold in the dried cranberries and white chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the mixture.
5. Press into Dish: Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and press it down evenly to form a solid base.
6. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
7. Cool: Allow the bars to cool in the baking dish for about 30 minutes. Once cool, lift them out using the parchment paper, if used, and place them on a wire rack.
8. Prepare Frosting: In a small bowl, blend the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth and creamy.
9. Frost the Bars: Once the bars have completely cooled, spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the top.
10. Slice and Serve: Cut into squares or rectangles for serving.
