Easy and Delicious White Chocolate Cranberry Squares Make a Great Edible Gift

December 21, 2014 by Kathryn 45 Comments

Jump to Recipe

One of my very favourite gifts to give during the holiday season is something I’ve made myself, and since I love to cook that usually means something to eat! Kraft products are a staple in my kitchen when the holidays roll around, whether I’m making my famous Chocolate Peanut Butter Squares or a tasty Marshmallow Nougat.

Since the holidays are also a busy time, though, my edible gifts for Christmas giving tend to be quick and easy so that I can whip up a few different treats in an afternoon and still have time for Christmas fun. And one of my personal favourite treats is White Chocolate Cranberry Squares!

These squares are as easy as it gets, but they’re also very versatile. I sometimes make them with blueberries instead of the cranberries or with chopped pecans instead of Brazil nuts. No matter which fruit and nut combination I choose, though, the orange zest is a must! The tart citrus flavour ensures the sweetness of the white chocolate isn’t overwhelming.

    I think this is a wonderfully delicious and attractive sweet to have on hand or to have very occasionally, unless you have a low cholesterol count and not diabetic-problems that some of seniors have. It would be a wonderful treat, though, especially if we are exercising and in good shape.

    I wish I ran across this during m Christmas baking! I was looking for something similar to Cranberry Bliss Bars, but you know.. Not insanely hard haha. I had an abundance of cranberries to use up too! Bookmarked, because these are definitely on the must try list.
