How to Make White Chocolate Cranberry Oatmeal Cookies:

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat together the butter, brown sugar and sugar on high speed for 2 minutes or until creamy. Add in the eggs and vanilla and beat to combine.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, baking powder and cloves. Add the flour mixture into the butter mixture and mix to combine. Mix in the oats.
Lastly, fold in the cranberries and white chocolate chips. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place into the fridge to chill for 45 minutes.
Once the dough has chilled, preheat the oven to 350 F. Line several baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Spoon the cold dough into 2 Tbs sized balls. Place onto the baking sheet at least 4” apart. Barely press each ball to slightly flatten them.
Place the pans into the oven to bake for 20 minutes. Once the cookies are baked, remove from the oven and place onto a cooling rack to cool slightly before serving.

FAQs:

Substitutions:
- Brown sugar – Regular granulated sugar can be used in place of the brown sugar, however, there will be a slight flavor difference.
- Cranberries – This is a cranberry cookie, however, raisins can be used instead for quite a change.
Tips:
- These cookies are best baked when chilled. Keep the dough chilled while some cookies bake. This helps to prevent them from spreading so thin that they become crunchy and burn.
