Notes

Storage: Store bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Make-Ahead: The baked and cooled bars freeze beautifully. Thaw at room temperature before serving. Substitutions: Dried cherries can replace cranberries; semi-sweet chocolate chips can replace white chocolate for a different flavor profile. Ensure all chocolate is alcohol-free. Serving Suggestion: Serve at room temperature for the best texture, optionally dusted with powdered sugar.
