The combination of sweet white chocolate and tart cranberries makes these Cranberry White Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies the perfect treat!

Even though dried cranberries are available all year, I still equate them with the holidays. I think it’s because fresh cranberries are so synonymous with fall and winter in America. Make these Cranberry and White Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies this year for the holidays and you won’t be disappointed! Start by gathering your ingredients. The recipe is a pretty standard oatmeal cookie recipe, but the white chips and dried cranberries take them from “everyday” to “holiday.” Be sure to give your butter time to come to room temperature!

In one bowl, sift together your dry ingredients and then stir in the oats. Sifting helps to eliminate any large chunks of flour or a forgotten lump of baking soda.

In another bowl, combine the butter and sugars and then stir in the eggs and vanilla. Then plop the dry ingredients on top of the wet and mix them together until well combined.

Now comes the best part: all those yummy add-ins. 🙂 Fold in the white chips and dried cranberries. If you’re a nut person, add 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts for some crunch!

Now it’s time to bake! Scoop them onto a baking sheet and bake for 7 minutes, or until the edges start to brown. Don’t overcook them! They will finish browning on the cookie sheet as they cool.

When they are cool enough to lift without falling apart, transfer them to a cooling rack to finish cooling.

Serve with a tall glass of milk for a chewy treat this holiday season!
