After consuming a years worth of chocolate in one cupcake, I thought this time I would bake something much healthier. I use the word healthy very loosely, it includes cranberries so it's as healthy as it's going to get at this time of the year. Who would have thought cocoa-less brownies are called blondies? I guess you learn something new every day! White chocolate and cranberries are such a great combination; you get the sweet taste from the chocolate, and a slight sourness from the cranberries. I always like to make mine a little thicker so it's crunchy on top, and the middle is all gooey and soft, I just have to cut mine into smaller pieces. Doesn't stop me taking two though! These are great little bites to share around the Christmas table.
