Recipe of the week:
Cranberry Cookies
Ingredients
2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup butter
¼ cup white sugar
¾ cup brown sugar
1 (3.5 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs
1 (6 ounce) package white chocolate chips
½ (6 ounce) package dried cranberries
Directions
Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease two baking sheets. Combine flour and baking soda in a bowl.
Beat the butter, white sugar, brown sugar, and instant pudding with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Beat the first egg into the butter until completely blended, then beat in the vanilla with the last egg. Mix in the flour mixture until just incorporated. Fold in the white chocolate chips and cranberries; mixing just enough to evenly combine. Drop spoonfuls of the dough 2 inches apart onto prepared baking sheets.
Bake in the preheated oven until edges of the cookies become golden brown, 9 to 12 minutes. Cool in the baking sheet for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
Cook’s Notes:
This recipe is extremely versatile. Try with butterscotch pudding and chips, or chocolate pudding and peanut butter chips. Or use vanilla pudding and chocolate chips for a very yummy version of the classic.
