Happy Easter! With the holiday upon us, I decided to make a tasty dessert to take to my family's Sunday gathering. This is a personal favorite of mine and one that I've made several times and always gotten great reviews on. These cookies are very addictive so be careful!! The first time I made these cookies, I loved them so much I ended up making three batches in one week. :) You will need:
2/3 cup butter, softened
2/3 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 Tbsp vanilla
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 1/4 cup dried cranberries
2/3 cup white chocolate chips
1. Preheat oven to 375 and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper (the parchment paper makes cleanup a breeze because there's no sticking)
2. In medium bowl, cream together brown sugar and butter until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time. Blend in vanilla.
3. Combine oats, flour, salt and soda in a separate bowl. Stir into butter mixture one cup at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in cranberries and white chocolate chips.
4. Drop by spoonful onto cookie sheets.
5. Bake 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
These cookies could also be made with nuts in them if you're a fan of nuts in your cookies. They stand on their own just fine however and nuts are definitely not necessary.
