How to Make Irresistible Soft-Baked White Chocolate Cranberry Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl until well combined.
  3. Cream the softened butter with granulated and brown sugars in a large bowl using an electric mixer. Beat for about 3 minutes until fluffy.
  4. Incorporate the egg and vanilla extract into the butter-sugar mixture. Mix until well blended.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
  6. Fold in the dried cranberries and white chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
  7. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough onto the lined baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake the cookies for approximately 10 minutes until golden around the edges but soft in the center.
  9. Cool the cookies on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks.
