Ingredients

Scale

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar (light)
1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1 large egg
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 3 minutes).
Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour and baking soda. Gradually fold this mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined.
Gently fold in white chocolate chips and dried cranberries until evenly distributed.
Drop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them about two inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are lightly golden but centers remain soft. Allow to cool slightly before transferring to wire racks.
