WHITE CHOCOLATE CRANBERRY COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheet with parchment paper.
• With an electric mixer, cream the butter and both sugars together until smooth. Add the vanilla and egg, mixing well. Sift together the flour and baking soda. Spoon the flour mixture gradually into the creamed sugar mixture. Stir in the cranberries, white chocolate chips and macadamia nuts. Drop by heaping spoonfuls, about 2 tablespoons, onto the prepared baking sheets, 2 inches apart. Bake one sheet at a time until lightly golden on top and the edges are set, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool on the sheet about 5 minutes, and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.

CRANBERRY, ORANGE AND WHITE CHOCOLATE CHUNK COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Spray cookie sheets with nonstick cooking spray or line with parchment paper. In a large bowl, beat butter, sugar, brown sugar and orange zest on medium speed of the electric mixer until well blended. (The mixture will have the consistency of wet sand.) Add the egg and vanilla and beat until smooth.
• In a small bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add to the sugar mixture and stir by hand until almost combined; add the cranberries and white chocolate and stir just until blended.
• Drop spoonfuls of dough about 1 inch apart on a cookie sheets. Bake 12 to 14 minutes, until light golden and set around the edges but still soft in the middle. Let set on cookie sheet 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

WHITE CHOCOLATE CRANBERRY OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 C) and position the oven rack in the center of the oven.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer, or a large bowl with a hand mixer, cream together the butter and brown sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy- about 3 minutes. With the mixer still running add in the eggs, vanilla, and orange zest. Mix for just about 10 seconds then stop and scrape down the sides of the bowl. Mix again just until incorporated.
• Add the baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon to the mixing bowl. Mix until evenly distributed. Add the flour to the mixing bowl and mix on low speed just until absorbed. Do not over-mix.
• Fold in the rolled oats, chocolate chips, and dried cranberries with a rubber spatula. It will be a fairly thick dough and I sometimes find that clean hands work best to finish mixing. This helps to avoid over-mixing.
• Use a large scoop (I use a 1.5 oz, 3TBSP scoop) to scoop rounded mounds of dough onto baking sheets, no more than 8 cookies per sheet. If desired, add more white chocolate chips and cranberries to each dough mound for a more visually appealing cookie. Gently press down each dough mound just slightly. You want to keep them fairly thick so that they do not come out completely flat.
• Bake, 1 cookie sheet at a time, at 375 F (190 C) for 9-12 minutes or until the edges are set and the cookies still look slightly under baked in the middle. Allow to cool on the cookie sheets for 5 minutes before moving to a cooling rack.
• After completely cooled, store in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days.

• Drop dough by rounded tablespoons onto prepared cookie sheets. Bake 9-12 minutes in preheated oven or until the edges of the cookies are just slightly golden. Cool for 3-4 minutes on pan, then transfer to a baking rack and cool completely.
• Note: Dark chocolate chips may be used in this recipe. Adding coconut is an option as is adding nuts.

• Mix in egg and egg yolk. Stir in orange extract and vanilla extract. With mixer set on low speed, slowly add in dry ingredients and mix just until combine. Mix in chocolate chips and cranberries (if you want them to look like those pictured, I set aside some of the chocolate chips and cranberries to gently press into the top of the cookie dough balls before baking).
• Scoop dough out 2 Tbsp at a time and gently roll into balls, then place onto Silpat lined cookie sheets spacing them 2-inches apart. Bake in preheated oven about 10 - 11 minutes. Allow to cool on cookie sheet two minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool. Store in an airtight container.
