Ingredients for Cranberry Cookies with White Chocolate

White Chocolate Chips – I am a big fan of these and I recommend using the Ghiradelli White chocolate chips for a rich, sweet creamy flavor. 

Cranberries – I usually have a small bag of dried cranberries on hand. They are great for salads and trail mix too!

Pecans – These add a nice crunch and can be omitted if you wish.

All Purpose Flour

Sugar

Nuts – optional

Step 1 – Mix wet ingredients in a large bowl.

Step 2 – Add dry ingredients, and mix well.

Step 3 – Fold in chocolate chips, cranberries and nuts.

Step 4 – Use a cookie scoop to make even cookie dough balls. Place on prepared baking sheets.

Bake as directed.

These are sure to be a holiday favorite.

Cranberry White Chocolate Chip Cookies

Pre chop the pecans and keep them in a sealed container until ready to use. Note – you can do this and keep nuts in the freezer for recipes too. This is a great tip for using nuts in other recipes.

Use parchment paper to line your baking pans. It cuts down on the cleanup and cookies don’t stick to your pan.

Prepare the dry ingredients ahead of time and store them in a baggie. This recipe is also great for gift giving. Just mix the dry ingredients in a mason jar and include a print out to the recipe
