The first person who decided that cranberries and white chocolate should go together is my hero. It’s sweet, yet tart and they balance each other perfectly.

My family loves the combination in these cranberry white chocolate scones, so I knew that making them into cranberry white chocolate chip cookies was just the next step to satisfy our cravings.

Ingredients you need:

Making this homemade cookies recipe:

Preheat oven to 350, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Combine flour, baking soda, salt, and baking powder in a medium sized bowl and set aside.

Using a stand mixer or a hand mixer on medium speed, beat butter until fluffy. Add brown and granulated sugar and beat together well. Stir in egg and vanilla extract.

Add flour mixture to butter and sugars and mix well. Fold in white chocolate chips and dried cranberries.

Scoop onto a prepared baking sheet, and place in oven. Bake, then allow to cool completely on cooling rack.

What kind of cranberries should I use? Can I use fresh cranberries?

This recipe will not work well with fresh cranberries due to their higher water content. For this to work, you will want to use dried cranberries over fresh or frozen.

How can I make this gluten free?

Almond flour is normally a good 1:1 substitute for all purpose flour. However, it will not work in this cookie recipe. If you need it to be gluten free, I would suggest trying a gluten free flour such as this one.
