Servings: 36
Calories: 219kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup salted butter softened
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 cup dried cranberries (or craisins)
- 1/2 cup finely chopped macadamia nuts
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips for drizzling tops of cookies optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter, sugars, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
- Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl. Then stir into the sugar mixture.
- Stir in the oats, white chocolate chips, dried cranberries and macadamia nuts. If you want thick cookies that don't spread much, refrigerate the dough for one hour. This is not necessary...the cookies will just be a little flatter without refrigeration.
- Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets.
- Bake 10 minutes. Don't overbake them!
- Let them cool for 2 minutes on the cookie sheets before moving them to wire racks to cool completely.
- If desired, melt 1/2 cup of white chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl. Use a spoon or fork to drizzle the melted chocolate over top the cookies.
- Store these in an airtight container.
