Ingredients
Cranberry Bliss Coffee Cake Ingredients:
2 eggs
1 cup sugar granulated
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
¼ tsp baking soda
½ tsp baking powder
½ - 1 tsp ground ginger
½ cup melted butter
½ cup buttermilk or sour cream
¾ cup white chocolate chips
3/4 cup dried cranberries soaked in warm water for 20 minutes, then well drained and towel dried
Cream Cheese Frosting Ingredients:
8 oz cream cheese softened
½ cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ tsp orange extract or zest of ½ orange
Topping:
2 Tbsp white chocolate chips melted
⅔ cups dried cranberries soaked in warm water for 20 minutes, then well drained and towel dried
Instructions
How to make Cranberry Bliss Coffee Cake:
Preheat oven to 350F with the rack in the middle. Spray a 9-inch square baking pan (or a 10 inch round) with nonstick spray OR butter and flour it to prevent the cake from sticking.
To a large bowl add 2 eggs, 1 cup sugar, 2 tsp vanilla and whisk until combined. Add 1 cup flour, ¼ tsp baking soda, ½ tsp baking powder, 1 tsp ground ginger and whisk just until incorporated. Next add ½ cup melted butter and ½ cup buttermilk, whisking after each. Fold in 3/4 cup cranberries and 3/4 cup white chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 35-40 minutes OR until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow to cool.
How to make Cream Cheese Frosting:
In a bowl whisk together 8 oz of room temperature cream cheese, ½ cup of powdered sugar, 1 tsp of vanilla extract and ½ tsp of orange emulsion or zest of ½ lemon until smooth.
Melt the White Chocolate:
Melt 2 tbsp of white chocolate in a microwave for about 30 seconds in 7-second intervals, stirring in between until no lumps until smooth and melted. Transfer to a ziplock bag and snip off the corner.
Assemble Cranberry Bliss Coffee Cake
Spread the Cream Cheese Frosting with a spatula all over the cooled cake. Sprinkle the ⅔ cup of dried cranberries on top. In a zigzag motion drizzle the melted white chocolate. Allow the chocolate to set for about 30 minutes to 1 hour, then cut and serve.
