WHITE CHOCOLATE SOFT COOKIES

After an entire day of Christmas shopping, you need to take the stress away with a nice, big batch of some fantastic cookies! These cookies are just the right thing to do that. They are super easy to make and come out tasty as could be.

Family and friends have been loving these. It’s been a general consensus that these cookies ROCK. I’ve even send them to work with hubs and everyone there swarmed him as soon as he walked in with a tray in his hands.

I think he is a little scared now every time I send goodies to work with him. There are a whole lot of employees and they always try to get to him first to make sure they get something. I told him to just drop the tray and run next time, might be safer for him. His employees get quite spoiled during the holiday season, when I have so many treats to bake that the three of us can’t eat them all.

Not to mention when I was working on my books, they got a whole lot of peppermint and pumpkin treats. But I have something special planned for them for their Christmas party this week, I am making them a Red Velvet Cheesecake and their own batch of these cookies.

Definitely trust the 15 people that got to try these cookies, they are scrumdelicious. They are also very easy to make. All you need is a whisk, a bowl, and a baking sheet to make these cookies. Well, an oven is quite crucial too. White chocolate and cranberry is a perfect winter flavor for these soft and chewy crinkle cookies.

    I made them today and I doubled the recipe but they don’t have much flavour and I didn’t cut anything out except didn’t double the butter enough. They don’t taste bad but not tasty either so I don’t know I had my husband and kids try them.

      It could’ve been the lack of butter as that was not my experience with these cookies. I hope you’ll try them again with it. 🙂
