Cranberry White Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars

Christmas time is here! We spent the evening as the family last night decorating the tree and putting out some of our decorations. My favorites are the decorations my Pappy made when I was little; like these wooden soldiers.

They are so cute guarding our front window.  My tree just makes my heart happy with all of the kids homemade ornaments decorating the entire tree.  It is just so stinkin cute. Then there are our elves. These are the elves that were my moms when she was little.  We have them peaking out all over the house keeping watch over the kids.

And then there  is baking.  OH how I love to bake Christmas goodies for gifts, for us, and really anybody who wants them! I had a couple cans of whole berry cranberry sauce sitting in the cabinet and I had this idea for a decadent Christmas treat. These Cranberry White Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars are so easy and delicious you will want to make them time and time again!
