Hi, Janet. Chiming in late.

I made these back in March, but if I posted about them, I can't find it.
They are the best bar cookies I've ever made, bar none (ha ha!). And
as American as, well, cranberries :-)

If you don't have cranberries handy, I'm sure you could substitute another
tart fruit or any fruit really, adjusting the quantity of sugar accordingly.

(I always have cranberries in the freezer, since they seem to be harder
to find other than in late autumn.)
