Cranberry Oatmeal White Chocolate Cookies




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.
