Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat the oven to 350°. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. Stir the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt together in a bowl; set aside.

3. Cream together the butter, both sugars, eggs and vanilla in a large bowl with a mixer until light and fluffy. Add the flour mixture; stir until completely blended.

4, Fold in the oats, cranberries and white chocolate until evenly distributed.

5. Drop the dough in 3 Tbsp. mounds ( a number 40 scoop is perfect) onto the prepared cookie sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart.

6. Bake for 11 to 13 minutes, or until golden, but still a little moist. Let the cookies cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack to complete cooling. If desired, dip the back of each cookie into white chocolate, and scrape off the excess.
