White Chocolate Chip Cranberry Cookies

So I guess I'm on a bit of a cranberry kick since I've recently found out that I like them. The original recipe can be found at http://sallysbakingaddiction.com/2012/11/22/soft-baked-white-chocolate-chip-cranberry-cookies/ . Theses cookies are sweet and tart, soft and chewy, and delicious! If you're a fan of cranberries you've got to try them. If you're not a fan, you've still got to try them! Below is my slightly adapted version. I added more cranberries and white chips. I just like my cookies to have more in them when you bite into them.

White Chocolate Chip Cranberry Cookies 

makes approximately 2.5 dozen
3/4 cup (1.5 sticks) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
3/4 cup dark brown sugar- use the dark brown, don't substitute light brown!
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg, at room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup white chocolate chips
1 cup dried cranberries

Line an ungreased cookie sheet with parchment paper or silpat. I love the silpats. Clean up is a breeze!
In a large bowl, with paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugars together on medium speed until fluffy and light in color. Mix in egg and vanilla.  Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.  On low speed, mix in flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt.  Stir in white chocolate chips & dried cranberries. Cover the dough and chill dough for 30 minutes or up to 3 days. I chilled mine for an hour.
Preheat oven to 350F.  Drop balls of dough (1.5 tablespoons each) onto cookie sheet. Bake for 8-9 minutes, until barely golden brown around the edges.  Do NOT cook them longer than 9 minutes. They will be very soft, almost underdone looking. These cookies will harden up as the cool.  Remove and let cool for 5-10 minutes on the cookie sheet.  Transfer to cooling rack
Do not drop dough onto warm cookie sheets.  Allow cookie sheets to cool completely between batches.

 

These cookies are chock full of cranberries and chocolate chips! Give them a try!
