Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

In a medium bowl, cream together the sugars and butter until light and fluffy. Thoroughly mix in the orange juice, vanilla and egg.

Stir in the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Mix in the almonds, white chocolate chips and dried cranberries.

Spoon rounded tablespoons of batter onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for about 14 minutes or until brown around the edges. Remove cookies to a wire rack to cool.
