Step 1
Prep: Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9x13 pan with parchment paper and set aside.
Step 2
Batter: In a mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the butter and sugar together. Add in the eggs and vanilla extract, mix until smooth.
Step 3
Mix in the flour, baking powder, ginger and salt.
Step 4
Stir in the ½ cup dried cranberries and 4-oz chopped white chocolate. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and use a rubber scraper to smooth it out evenly.
Step 5
Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Set aside to cool completely.
Step 6
Make the Cream Cheese Frosting: In a large bowl use an electric mixer to whip together the cream cheese, butter, milk, powdered sugar and orange zest. Spread the icing over the top of the cooled bars.
Step 7
Sprinkle with remaining ½ cup dried cranberries.
Step 8
White Chocolate drizzle: In a microwave safe bowl in 30 second intervals Melt the white chocolate in a glass or ceramic bowl in the microwave for 1 minute. Let sit 2 minutes, then stir gently. If needed, add time in 15 second increments, letting the chocolate sit before stirring gently again. Once melted, transfer chocolate to a small baggie. Snip the corner and drizzle chocolate all over the top of the bars. Let sit to cool and harden.
Step 9
Grip the parchment and remove the bars from the pan. Then cut them into 3 long rows, then 5 cuts to cut the bars into squares. Cut each square diagonally to make triangles. Serve & enjoy!
