White Chocolate Cranberry Cookies are a tasty, chewy alternative to the classic chocolate chip cookie.  The dried cranberries add a nice pop of colour for the holiday season.

To make these white chocolate cranberry cookies, I started by dumping some Golden Crisco, light brown sugar and granulated sugar into a large mixing bowl.

I used an electric mixer to cream these ingredients together.

Then I added an egg, some orange juice and vanilla extract to the bowl.  

I continued mixing with the electric mixer.

Then I added some Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free all purpose flour blend, salt, baking soda and xanthan gum to the bowl. 

I mixed with the electric mixer until all of the ingredients were fully combined.

Then I added some white chocolate chips and dried cranberries to the bowl.

I used a rubber spatula to stir the white chocolate chips and cranberries into the cookie dough.

Then I used a 1 tbsp scoop to drop the cookie dough onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet leaving at least two inches between the balls.

I placed the baking sheet in the oven and baked the cookies until they were golden brown around the edges.

I removed the baking sheet from the oven and allowed the cookies to cool on the pan for a couple minutes.

Then I used a spatula to transfer them to a cooling rack to finish cooling off.

These white chocolate cranberry cookies are super chewy and loaded with white chocolate chips and dried cranberries.
