These White Chocolate Cranberry Snowflake Cookies are a festive treat perfect for the holidays. They blend the rich sweetness of white chocolate with tart cranberries in a delightful, snow-like cookie.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup powdered sugar, plus more for dusting
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • ½ cup dried cranberries, roughly chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the vanilla extract and egg until just combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the white chocolate chips and chopped cranberries.
  6. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  7. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are set and very lightly golden. The centers should look soft.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Once cooled, dust generously with powdered sugar for a snowy effect.

Notes

  • For a brighter flavor, try using white chocolate chunks instead of chips.
  • If your cranberries are very dry, try soaking them in a little warm water for 10 minutes, then drain and pat dry before using.
  • You can chill the dough for 30 minutes before scooping if your kitchen is warm; this helps the cookies keep their shape.
