OATMEAL-CRANBERRY COOKIES

Steps:

• Position the racks to the top and lower third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
• Whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
• Beat the butter, brown and granulated sugars, in a large bowl, with an electric mixer on medium-high speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally, until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at time, until incorporated and then beat in the vanilla. Reduce the speed to low. Beat in the flour mixture, a little at a time, until a smooth dough forms. Stir in the oats and cranberries with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon.
• Drop heaping tablespoons of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spaced about 2-inches apart. Bake the cookies, rotating the baking sheets halfway through, until golden brown, but still soft in the middle, about 15 minutes. Let the cookies cool slightly on the baking sheets, and then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

CRANBERRY OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the softened butter with brown sugar until very creamy. This is an essential step for the cookies to remain soft; you'll need about 5 minutes to achieve the desired texture. Then add one egg at a time and whisk well after each addition. At last, add the vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
• In another bowl, combine oats, flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.
• Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir well to combine.
• Fold in cranberries and chopped walnuts and stir until combined.
• Cover the dough and refrigerate it for one hour. (If you're going to leave it for more than one hour, it is good to pre-scoop the cookies to have them ready to bake).
• When you're ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Scoop the dough using a 1.5 tbsp ice cream scoop and lightly flatten the top of each cookie.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the cookies are set and slightly brown on the edges but still soft in the center.
• Allow the cookies to cool for 10 minutes before transferring them to the cooling rack, or they might break.
• Optional: drizzle your cookies with melted white chocolate.
