Delicious! It was dense & moist and because I didn't have any OJ & had to use lemon juice it tasted like a lemon cranberry pound cake. Oh YUM! I used a little extra lemon zest & the fresh lemon juice but otherwise followed the recipe. I think next time I'll even try adding some unmelted vanilla chips to the batter with the cranberries. I can't wait to try it again with the orange juice (I'll have to hide it from my kids. lol) Thanks for sharing, Syd! Made for Every Day is a Holiday tag game.

Wow! This is so tasty. I didn't melt the chips but just put them in as they were. Also, I didn't have quite enough cranberries so used 1 cup of cranberries and 1/2 cup sultanas which worked really well. This bread is amazing. Thanks!

Oh my goodness, this bread is so GOOD! Everyone loved it. I served this at our Christmas dinner on the buffet table. It was gone by the time we were cleaning up. I tried to melt my white chips in the microwave and nearly started a fire. So - DH decided it would be a much better idea to just put the chips as is. It was a nice texture with the cranberries and chips. The only thing that I noticed was my cooking time was much less, about 45 minutes. I set the timer low to be on the safe side, and I'm glad I checked it when I did. I will definitely be making this again soon. Made and Reviewed for Please Review My Recipe Tag - Thanks! :)

A festive holiday bread! Delicious! I took it to the office's holiday potluck party this week and it was devoured. The white chocolate chips embedded a rich moist texture to it, and quite subtle since the recipe only calls for 1/2 cup. I didn't have butter flavored shortening so used my organic shortening combined with a tablespoon of unsalted butter. Thanks, Sydney Mike! Made for 123 Hit Wonders.

A delicious loaf! I made this for a bake sale, and people loved it! The flavour is fantastic. It is not a wet/moist bread, but produces a denser, pound-cake type texture with a lovely crumb.
I added an extra teaspoon of lemon zest, used freshly squeezed orange juice, regular shortening, and white chocolate as opposed to the vanilla chips stated in the recipe. We will most definitely make this again! Thank you so much!

Syd this is amazing! My friends Grundy's Kitchen couldn't stop raving about it and brought me a sample. I just had to make it after trying it. I too had to make a few small substitutions but now have the ingredients to make exactly as written so I have that on my agenda for today. I doubled the recipe and used regular shortening vs butter flavored, 1 tsp. pure lemon extract vs zest and 2 cups of fresh cranberries. The texture of this quick bread is moist and dense with a wonderfully delicate crumb. I made 1 large loaf and 3 mini loaves and plan on this being a new holiday favorite. Thanks so much for sharing. Brenda.
Update- I have now made the recipe exactly as written and while the dried cranberries had a different texture than the fresh it is equally delicious. I definitely prefer the lemon zest over the extract. A blue ribbon recipe all the way!

I had to make a few substitutions given what I had in my kitchen when I went to make this. I substituted regular shortening instead of butter flavored shortening, and lemon juice instead of lemon zest. I also used 1 cup of fresh cranberries instead of 1 1/2 cups of dried cranberries (because its cranberry season in Wisconsin). This bread was light and fluffy and is just like cake! Yum!! This would be a great gift giver during Christmas time. I will definitely make this again and thank you for sharing your recipe.
