  6. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 2 eggs, and mix.
  7. In a separate bowl, mix 2 cups flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, and 1/4 teaspoon salt until uniform.
  8. Little by little, blend dry mixture with wet mixture until smooth.
  9. To mixture, add 1/2 cup dried cranberries and 1 cup white chocolate chips, and mix until uniform.
  10. Spray a 13-by-9-inch baking pan with nonstick oil and press mixture into pan corner to corner to form a uniform layer.
  11. Bake for 20 minutes, then cool.

  13. Be careful not to break it.
  14. Frost the top with cream cheese frosting, sprinkle with dried cranberries, and drizzle with melted white chocolate.
