Cranberry Hootycreek cookies make amazing gifts, the idea is to layer all of the dry ingredients into a mason jar and tie the recipe to the top. My sister discovered these a few holidays ago and since then they are one of her go-to cookie recipes. I was a little hesitant to make a batch since I am not a huge fan of white chocolate but was pleasantly surprised. I love the tartness from the cranberries mixed with the sweet chips and buttery base. YUM!
Ingredients
- 5/8 cup + 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup rolled oats

- 1/2 teaspoon salt

- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips

2. In a medium bowl, beat together 1/2 cup softened butter, 1 egg and 1 tsp of vanilla until fluffy.
