Delightfully chewy cookies combining the creamy sweetness of white chocolate with tart cranberries, perfect for holiday gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour

  3. Add the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is blended well. Then mix in the vanilla extract.
