Recipe Description
The coffee house favorite cookie bar improved upon with fresh cranberries, fresh orange, and a fresh ginger kick! This recipe is based on the original Starbucks cranberry bliss bar, but I removed the artificial flavoring for fresh, resulting in a cookie bar with a beautiful texture and lots of great flavor!
