Description
My go-to cookie recipe if I want something sweet, soft, chewy, and delicious! These thick cookies are packed with white chocolate, cranberries and oats in every bite.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 3 cups old fashioned oats
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup dried cranberries
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 orange zest (optional)
Instructions
-
In a large bowl, mix together flour, oats, baking powder, and salt.
-
In another bowl, beat together butter and brown sugar until creamy. Then beat in eggs and vanilla extract until well combined.
-
Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, and mix until just combined.
-
Stir in dry cranberries, white chocolate chips and orange zest.
-
Chill the dough in the refrigerator for about an hour. (give the dough some time to stay together)
-
While waiting for the dough to chill, preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking pan with parchment paper or grease it with cooking spray.
-
Use a cookie scoop to scoop the dough onto the baking sheet. You can also use your hand to roll the dough. About 6 cookies at a time.
-
Bake for 11-12 minutes or until golden brown.
-
Cool the cookies for 10 minutes. Then enjoy!
Notes
Cookies can be stored in an air tight container for up to 5 days.
Adding orange zest is highly recommended but totally optional.
Make sure you chill the dough for at least 1 hour, so the dough can hold together nicely and does not spread as much in the oven.
