Taking a bite of these Cranberry White Chocolate Chip when they’re still warm from the oven, is one of my favorite things to do. Each cookie is like a taste of the holiday season. They’ve got dried baking cranberries that add a bit of tart flavor (and color) alongside the white chocolate chips for sweetness. Bake them to serve as a festive dessert option or make your own Mason Jar Cookie Gift! I’ve got a FREE printable recipe card below that you just tie onto the mason jar. Everyone is sure to love these cookies.

If you’re a fan of drop cookies, these are a great addition to your holiday baking. I’ve become quite the pro at baking drop cookies and there are a few tips that I swear by for every batch:
- Make sure your butter is truly softened, but don’t overdue it with a microwave.
- Scrape down the sides of the bowl as you mix.
- Size is important! An ice cream scoop helps to ensure all cookies are the same size.
- In between your cookie sheets baking, put your dough into the refrigerator. This prevents it from melting.
- Cool cookies on a baking rack for best results.
Cranberry White Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe
Preheat the oven to 375º. Line the cookie sheets with parchment paper or sip pats, then set aside. Whisk flour, baking soda and salt together in a medium size bowl.
Cream the butter with an electric mixer. Add the sugars and beat until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla. Beat well and scrape the sides of the bowl.
Slowly add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, making sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl after each addition. Stir in the cranberries and white chocolate chips.
Drop the cookies in 1 inch balls onto the baking sheets, leaving space between each cookie.
Bake for 8-10 minutes. Allow to cool on the cookie sheet before transfer to a cooling rack.
Store the cookies in an air-tight container. To keep them moist, and prevent hardening, you can add a slice of sandwich bread to the container. It’s a great trick!
