Description

Chewy and sweet cookies loaded with white chocolate chips, dried cranberries, and hearty oats, perfect for a festive treat or everyday indulgence.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup dried cranberries
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  6. Stir in oats, dried cranberries, and white chocolate chips.
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 10–12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
  9. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For softer cookies, slightly underbake them and allow them to set while cooling.
  • You can substitute dark or milk chocolate chips for white chocolate if desired.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
