If you are not a fan [of white chocolate], skip it altogether.
you might also swap in one cup of chopped roasted nuts in their place, Jawad says.

Add orange zest and massage the zest into the sugar with your fingers until its very fragrant.

Fold in the dried cranberries and white chocolate, then scrape the batter into the prepared pan.
Once the blondies have cooled completely, make the frosting.

Add chopped cranberries and orange zest on top, if desired.
