Last week I counted up my loose change, took a defensive driving course online, and I even ordered a book and an herb garden kit for my reversed New Year’s resolution. Although I know this is all sooo interesting, I am ready to move on and go full swing into the Christmas festivities. I’ve already been busy at work baking my favorite holiday cookies.
The recipe is really simple and you can find it on the back of any bag of Craisins original dried cranberries. They are good at anytime of year, but the cranberries with the white chocolate are colors that make me think CHRISTMAS! So here’s to kicking off the holiday season with the oatmeal cranberry white chocolate chunk cookie recipe:
INGREDIENTS:
2/3 cup butter or margarine, softened
2/3 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
1 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 6-ounce package Ocean Spray® Craisins® Original Sweetened Dried Cranberries
2/3 cup white chocolate chunks or chips
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 375ºF.
Using an electric mixer, beat butter or margarine and sugar together in a medium mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Add eggs, mixing well. Combine oats, flour, baking soda and salt in a separate mixing bowl. Add to butter mixture in several additions, mixing well after each addition. Stir in sweetened dried cranberries and white chocolate chunks.
Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on wire rack.
Makes approximately 2 1/2 dozen cookies.
