Cranberry White Chocolate Cake Bars
Introduction
Cranberry White Chocolate Cake Bars are soft, sweet, and slightly tangy dessert bars. They combine fluffy cake, juicy cranberries, and creamy white chocolate, making them perfect for holidays, family gatherings, tea time, or a special homemade treat.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh or dried cranberries
- 3/4 cup white chocolate chips or chopped white chocolate
- 1/2 cup cream cheese pieces, optional
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 180°C / 350°F. Grease a square baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt. In another large bowl, beat the eggs with sugar until light and smooth. Add the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract, then mix well.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir gently until combined. Fold in the cranberries and white chocolate. Do not overmix, so the bars stay soft and tender.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Add extra cranberries and white chocolate pieces on top for a beautiful finish.
