Directions:
Base
Preheat the oven to 350F / 180C
Place all ingredients (except for cranberries) in a bowl. With your mixer on low, mix until ingredients come together and form a dough. Fold in cranberries.
Press the dough into a 9×9 baking dish. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool while you prepare frosting.
White Chocolate
Over a double boiler melt the cocoa butter. Remove from heat. Stir in the maple syrup and salt.
Frosting
In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the goat cheese, honey and orange zest until well-blended. Gradually add 1/2 cup of melted white chocolate; mix until blended.
Frost the base. Sprinkle with cranberries. Drizzle with remaining melted white chocolate. Refrigerate until the chocolate is set. Cut into triangles before serving. (These bars taste better chilled)
