Cranberry Bliss Bars!

Cranberry Bliss Bars a la Starbucks

We had a bake-off at work where we compared Starbucks seasonal delight, Cranberry Bliss Bars, to our homemade versions.  I gotta tell ya, I think I prefer the homemade versions becuase they were less sweet than the Starbucks version.

Also, I made mine in a dish smaller than suggested so I got more of a cake-like density versus Starbucks' bar-like texture.  Now, that I've made my own, I can have them any time of year instead of having to wait until Christmas!

Now I want to play with the recipie more and add a little more ginger and try a cranberry drizzle instead of a frosting drizzle ontop of the cream cheese frosting.  Yum Yum.
