Orange Cranberry Croissant Bake Recipe – a holiday breakfast idea with orange juice and fresh cranberries. Easy, delicious and the perfect beginning to your holiday celebrations!

When it comes to a holiday breakfast, I want festive yet easy with a ton of flavor. This Orange Cranberry Croissant Bake is just that. All of our favorite breakfast things baked into one beautiful dish: mini croissants sliced, drizzled with 100% orange juice, topped with fresh cranberries and baked with a custard mixture.

This Orange Cranberry Croissant Bake will be the star on our holiday table. It can be prepared the day before and baked just before serving. A dusting of powdered sugar adds a touch of sweetness and a glass of orange juice served along with a plateful of this croissant bake is my idea of a holiday celebration done right.

It’s not secret that cranberries and oranges go together like peanut butter and jelly. They are made for each other! But have you tried to throw chocolate into the mix? I did and created one of my favorite cakes of late!

I used my very favorite chocolate cake (egg-free, dairy-free) and added fresh cranberries and orange. This cake blew my mind!

White Chocolate Cranberry Sugar Cookies

White Chocolate Cranberry Sugar Cookies – soft and chewy cookies topped with melted white chocolate and dried cranberries. Easy and delicious treat to bake on a cold and snowy day!

How do you feel about a white chocolate and cranberry combo? I hope you are like me and love it, because these cookies are all about it. Soft and chewy sugar cookies are topped with melted white chocolate and dried cranberries and ready to much on.

This idea is based on one of my favorite bars, ones that I make a lot this time of year – Cranberry Bliss Bars (a Starbucks Copycat). I can’t call them Cranberry Bliss Cookies since there is no cream cheese frosting involved (even though I had strong intentions to do so) but they are still absolutely delicious!

I actually made them in a hurry. I had a batch of my favorite sugar cookies all baked and cooled. They were waiting to be frosted. But then I was in a hurry, leaving for a ballet class with my girls and there was no time to whip up a frosting. So melted chocolate it was!

When in doubt, melt some chocolate. Only good things can come out of it. Also, when it’s cold outside – bake something! It always works and it’s bound to put you in a good mood.
