Directions
Lightly heat your oven to 350°F and lining an 8x8-inch baking pan with aluminum foil for easy cleanup. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder. In a larger bowl, cream the brown sugar and butter until smooth and well combined. Then, beat in the egg and vanilla extract. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until everything is just mixed. Gently fold in the white chocolate chips and dried cranberries. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan, and pop it into the oven. Bake for about 35 to 40 minutes, or until the edges are set and starting to pull away from the sides. Let the blondies cool on a wire rack for about 15 minutes before slicing and enjoying.
Perfect Side Pairings
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a comforting dessert. They also pair well with a cup of coffee or tea for an afternoon snack. Adding a sprinkle of powdered sugar on top can add a nice touch of sweetness and presentation.
Food Storage Tips
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days. For longer storage, freeze the bars in a sealed container or freezer bag for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
