Following is a guest post and fabulous Cranberry White Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies Recipe from This Grandma is Fun… enjoy!!
A sudden, marked and complete change. That is one definition of revolution. I have been tinkering with this Cranberry White Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies Recipe for years. I was playing with the proportions of butter to flour, baking times and temperatures, and what I wanted for mix ins.
All cookies are good fresh and warm from the oven. But I wanted a cookie that was still good for days. Tender and chewy. Full of flavor.

This recipe began as chocolate chip raisin oatmeal. When I ran out of chocolate chips, I decided to try white chips. And then raisins didn’t seem right anymore.
I tried dried cranberries, and this Cranberry White Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies Recipe was born. The day I made this recipe for the first time was a revolution in cookie making for our family.
These were devoured. We made batch after batch and couldn’t get enough of them. The flavor and texture of this cookie are created from a few key ingredients. A mixture of white and dark brown sugar, and, would believe it, a teaspoon of water?
I found when I used all dark brown sugar the flavor was too strong, but the combination of the light and dark brown sugar gives the cookie a more robust flavor that is not overpowering.
The teaspoon of water does something magic to soften the cookie and keep it soft. I like to pull mine out of the oven when they look almost done, but not quite. A little underdone with a golden blond color is perfect for a chewy cookie that stays soft.

These things are absolutely amazing! Made them for the 4th, and everyone loved them. My cooking time was a little longer, though, probably 13-14 minutes. Thanks!!
