Ingredients
- 2 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 3/4 cup dark brown sugar, packed
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon orange zest (optional)
- 1 Tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 cup dried cranberries, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees (F). Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a large bowl add the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Whisk well to combine and set aside.
- In a large bowl using an electric handheld mixer, or in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the butter, both sugars, vanilla, and orange zest. Beat on medium speed, scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed, for bout 2 minutes, or until light in color and fluffy in texture.
- Turn the mixer off again and use a rubber spatula to scrape the bottom and side of the bowl. This extra step ensures to batter missed getting incorporated. If you notice large pockets of wet ingredients, turn the mixer back on and mix for another 30 seconds or so.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Turn the mixer off and let the mixture rest for 5 minutes.
- Using a strong rubber spatula or wooden spoon, add in the flour in thirds, mixing slowly and stirring only until the flour begins to disappear. Do not over mix or your cookies will be dry!
- Finally, fold in the white chocolate chips and dried cranberries.
- Using a large cookie scoop, scoop out about 3 tablespoons worth of cookies dough and roll it into a ball. Place cookie dough balls on prepared baking sheets, leaving at least 1" of room in between each cookie for inevitable spreading.
- Continue this process until all the dough has been rolled. Place baking sheets in preheated oven and bake for 9 to 11 minutes, or until golden at the edges but still soft in the middle. Let cookies cool for 10 minutes on the sheet before transferring to a wire wrack to cool completely.
