My friend gave me the recipe for these gems a few years ago. I remember I packaged them into clear bags with shiny green ribbon, and then I set them in front of our neighbors’ apartment doors as a Christmas surprise.
Ingredients:
2/3 cup butter, softened
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 oz package dried cranberries
2/3 cup white chocolate chips
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, cream together the butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well. Combine oats, flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl. Add to the butter mixture, a little bit at a time, mixing well. Stir in the dried cranberries and white chocolate chips.
Drop by rounded teaspoons onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden-brown. Cool on wire racks.
Makes 2 1/2-ish dozen.
