White Chocolate Cranberry Cookies
Description
The recipe mixes room-temperature butter creamed with brown and granulated sugars, gradually adding eggs and vanilla before incorporating the dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, and salt. Dried cranberries, white chocolate chips, and chopped pecans are folded in for flavor and texture. Cookies are scooped onto greased sheets and baked at 350°F until lightly golden, then cooled on racks.
The resulting cookies offer a balanced sweetness from the white chocolate and sugars, complemented by the tartness of cranberries and the crisp bite of pecans. The bake time produces a tender yet structured cookie suitable for snacks or dessert.

- 8 ounces butter room temperature, unsalted
- 1 cup dark brown sugar packed
- 3/4 cup sugar

- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cup pecans coarsely chopped
Instructions

- Using a large spatula or spoon, fold in the sweetened dried cranberries, white chocolate chips, and chopped pecans.
- Using a cookie scoop, drop the cookies onto the lightly greased baking sheets, spaced about 1½ inches apart, and bake for about 15 minutes or until lightly golden brown.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
