Ingredients 

Cookie Ingredients;

  • 1 cup butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon orange extract
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup Craisins, chopped

Frosting and Topping:

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon orange extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup Craisins, chopped
  • 1 square baking chocolate, or almond bark-- melted

Instructions

  • Line a jelly roll pan with parchment paper. 
  • Beat together melted butter and brown sugar over medium speed with an electric mixer. Add in eggs, 1 tsp orange extract, and 1 tsp vanilla extract and beat until mixed well.  
  • Add in ground ginger, baking powder, salt, and flour, beating until just blended. Don’t overmix. 
  • Stir in white chocolate chips and craisins by hand. Spread evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Place the pan into the air fryer for 10-16 minutes, at 320 degrees F, or until set and golden brown at the edges. (The exact time will depend on what pan you are using and the air fryer you own)
  • Don’t overtake, or the bars will be dense.
  • Remove from the air fryer and place the pan on a wire rack to cool. Allow bars to cool completely before topping with frosting. 
  • Make the frosting, beat cream cheese and powdered sugar with a whisk or an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.  
  • Add 1/2 tsp orange extract and 1/2 tsp vanilla extract and mix well—top cooled bars with frosting.  Sprinkle with chopped Craisins and drizzle white chocolate over the top with a fork. I dip my fork into the chocolate and then shake it gently over the top of the bars to create little streaks.  
  • Cut into triangles.
  • Plate, serve, and enjoy!
