Nothing says holiday baking like butter, butter and more butter and I am here today with a recipe for cranberry, white chocolate and pistachio blondies that is buttery, sweet and delicious.
This recipe is festive for the holidays because you have red cranberries, white chocolate chips and green pistachios. I also find these flavors to taste very holiday-esque, especially with the addition of orange zest to the blondie batter.
The batter is straightforward and uncomplicated, and is very similar to a basic cookie dough but with the addition of nuts, fruit and chocolate. I think blondies are even easier to bake than cookies because you get to spread all of the dough into one baking dish instead of shaping individual cookies and working multiple rounds of cookie sheets in and out of the oven.
After a quick 25-30 minute bake in the oven, the blondies come out lightly golden on top, crisp around the edges and gooey in the center.
Each bite gives you the flavors of white chocolate, cranberry, pistachio and orange. The texture of these blondies is soft and chewy, like a cross between a cookie and a brownie…kind of the best of both worlds!
These white chocolate, cranberry and pistachio blondies are a great way to add variety to your holiday cookie lineup! Easy, delicious and crowd-pleasing! Just embrace the butter. 😉

It’s a three-day stage race in Moab, Utah that’s put on by the same race organization, TransRockies Rockies Race Series, that I did my six-day Colorado race with back in August. TransRockies truly excels when it comes to planning and [...]
