Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment Paper
  • Hand Mixer

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup Unsalted Butter Softened to room temperature
  • 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Brown Sugar Packed
  • 1 large Egg Room temperature
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour Spoon and leveled
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 cup White Chocolate Chips
  • 1 cup Dried 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.

Notes

Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days. For longer storage, freeze baked cookies for up to 3 months.
