Cranberry White Chocolate Cookies

These Cranberry White Chocolate Cookies are DELICIOUS and so easy to make since it's a cookie-in-a-jar recipe. You just toss it all in a bowl, stir it up, and bake! It makes about 3 dozen cookies so it seems a little small than a regular batch of cookies (which is good if you don't want to be tempted to eat a gazillion of them yourself!). They also make such pretty cookies-in-a-jar with all the colors and textures of the ingredients.

Cranberry White Chocolate Cookies

Ingredients
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 cup all-purpose flour (I like to mix with whole wheat flour)
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/8 tsp baking soda
1/8 tsp salt
1 cup quick-cooking oats
1 cup dried cranberries
1 cup white chocolate chips

Additional Ingredients
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract

Directions
1. In a 1-qt glass jar, layer the sugar and brown sugar, packing well between each layer. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; spoon into jar. Top with oats, cranberries, and chips. Cover and store in a cool dry place for up to 6 months.
2. To prepare cookies: Pour cookie mix into a large mixing bowl; stir to combine. Beat in butter, egg and vanilla. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes (I skip this step). Drop by the tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 735 degrees F for 8-10 minutes or until browned. Remove to wire racks to cool.
