White Chocolate Cranberry Cookies

My sister Brooke’s friend Christine brought these White Chocolate Cranberry Cookies to our Holiday Cookie Swap. You guys all know how much I love cranberry anything (well, except cranberry juice – blech), so I’m sure you can imagine how excited I was about these. They’re soft and chewy with the perfect combination of sweetness and tartness from the white chocolate and cranberry. They just taste like the holidays to me.

    Sorry – I updated the recipe to reflect that I used dried cranberries in place of the raisins.

    Looks just delicious! I’m crazy lately about cranberries too. Talk about a versatile fruit! I just used them this evening to make a cranberry-apple conserve that served as the sauce for almond-crusted pork tenderloin. It was a big hit.

    I also wonder if you can use fresh cranberries since they are in season!

    You could definitely make this with fresh cranberries if you wanted.

    How long did you bake this if you halved it in a 8 by 8 pan? So excited to try it 🙂

    I think I started checking it at 30 minutes and left it in for about 45 based on the color of the top layer.

    Me again. It is DELICIOUS! I halved the recipe and used 1 cup of fresh cranberries, though I think I could have used more.

    Thanks so much!

    Glad to hear it Lisa! I will definitely have to try this with fresh cranberries next time I make it.
