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.

I wouldn’t have thought to combine all those flavors but I guess it works,huh?! It certainly looks good!
