My mom and I made these totally yummy cookies yesterday as part of some holiday baking. They were a huge hit and they look so pretty! I just had to share the recipe with you all.
The original recipe proportions said it only made 24 servings so my mom and I doubled the recipe and we added some chopped pecans. (Everything is better with some added pecans, you know!) The recipe came from All Recipes.com
White Chocolate and Cranberry Cookies
INGREDIENTS
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon brandy (We used Vanilla instead and didn’t double it)
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 3/4 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cup dried cranberries
DIRECTIONS
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg and brandy. Combine the flour and baking soda; stir into the sugar mixture. Mix in the white chocolate chips and cranberries. Drop by heaping spoonfuls onto prepared cookie sheets.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven. For best results, take them out while they are still doughy. Allow cookies to cool for 1 minute on the cookie sheets before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
We hope you enjoy them as much as we did. They go great with coffee or hot cocoa. And don’t tell anybody, but I had some for breakfast this morning too. 
They say that confession is good for the soul, so here goes…….I had some for breakfast, too!
