oatmeal cranberry white chocolate chunk cookies









These cookies are delicious! I made some with white chocolate chips and some with semi-sweet chocolate chip. They remind me of my cousin's cranberry hottycreeks, which I was never able to make turn out right. They would be excellent with some pecans thrown in.

oatmeal cranberry white chocolate chunk cookies (Ocean Spray)
2/3 cup butter, softened
2/3 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
1 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 (6 ounce) package Ocean Spray Craisins Original Dried Cranberries
2/3 cup white chocolate chunks or chips

Preheat oven to 375. Using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar together in a medium mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Add eggs, mixing well. Combine oats, flour, baking soda and salt in a separate mixing bowl. Add to butter mixture in several additions, mixing well after each addition. Stir in dried cranberries and white chocolate chunks.
Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls on to ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on wire rack. Makes approximately 2 1/2 dozen cookies

  1. A couple of years ago I made cranberry white chocolate cookies and loved loved them. This past year I wanted to make them and couldn't find the recipe anywhere! I was so disappointed. I often try out the recipes on the back of the packages...so maybe this is it! Can't wait to try it! Thanks!

  2. Camie- Thanks for sending these our way the other day! We really enjoyed them and it was nice to know you were thinking of us during a rather difficult week. The kids are feeling better each day and we'll soon be ready for a playdate! - Laura
