Oatmeal Cranberry White Chocolate Chunk Cookies



I found this recipe on the back of a Ocean Spray cranberry bag. These are delicious! They were soft and cakey which I did not expect from an oatmeal cookie. The sweetness of the chocolate and the tartness of the cranberries was a perfect combination. It's been awhile since I've baked these, but if I remember correctly the baking time for my oven was exactly 12 minutes on dark colored pans.


INGREDIENTS:


2/3 cup butter or margarine, softened
2/3 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats
1 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 6-ounce package Ocean SprayCraisins Original Dried Cranberries
2/3 cup white chocolate chunks or chips

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 375ºF.

Using an electric mixer, beat butter or margarine and sugar together in a medium mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Add eggs, mixing well. Combine oats, flour, baking soda and salt in a separate mixing bowl. Add to butter mixture in several additions, mixing well after each addition. Stir in dried cranberries and white chocolate chunks.

Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on wire rack.

Makes approximately 2 1/2 dozen cookies.
