Oatmeal Cranberry White Chocolate Chip Cookies

Cranberry Oatmeal White Chocolate Chip Cookies are perfect for Christmas Cookie Trays from Serena Bakes Simply From Scratch.

I've been making Cranberry Oatmeal White Chocolate Chip Cookies on the regular. 

I just adore the contrast of flavors of the dried cranberries with the sweet white chocolate chips, and the texture of the rolled oats. As if that wasn't enough the brown butter, cinnamon, and vanilla add the perfect warmth for this time of year.

As good as these are as a Christmas Cookie we really love them year-round. We've been enjoying these babies since the kids went back to school, after a summer break when it was too hot to bake, and have yet to tire of them. 

I'm pretty sure I will be making these Oatmeal Craisin White Chocolate Chip Cookies a gazillion more times before the end of the year, because they are just that good! You should too! 

Here's how I make Oatmeal Cranberry White Chocolate Chip Cookies.

Brown Butter in saucepan for Oatmeal Cranberry White Chocolate Chip Cookies.

Brown 12 tablespoons Butter, until nutty smelling, and golden brown.

Using brown butter in these Oatmeal Cranberry White Chocolate Cookies really makes them the absolute best. It adds a layer of flavor that makes these cookies highly addictive.

    1. Hi, The brown butter probably hadn't set quite enough and melted too quickly. If the house is really warm you can pop the dough in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes to cool it down or if the house is cool try beating the butter a few more times with a rest to help it set. It will become quite firm when it's ready. I hope that helps, Serena

  6. Do you use salted or unsalted butter? Do you use light or brown sugar?.. Can’t wait to try this recipe but don’t want to mess up!

    1. Hi! I use Salted Butter. I use Golden Brown Sugar. Light would be the closest if you don't have Golden. Thanks, Serena
