Ingredients
3/4cupUnsalted ButterSoftened to room temperature
3/4cupGranulated Sugar
1/2cupBrown SugarPacked
1largeEggRoom temperature
1tspVanilla Extract
2cupsAll-Purpose FlourSpoon and leveled
1tspBaking Soda
1/2tspSalt
1cupWhite Chocolate Chips
1cupDried Cranberries
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or use a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together with a hand mixer or standing mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and mix until fully combined and smooth, about 30 seconds.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until evenly mixed.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed or stirring with a sturdy spoon until just combined; do not overmix.
Fold in the white chocolate chips and dried cranberries with a spatula, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, scoop portions of dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing each about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers still look slightly soft.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to firm up, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
