These soft and chewy Chocolate Cranberry Oatmeal cookies are made with milk Chocolate Chips and Dried Cranberries, for an amazing flavor combo; plus, you could potentially have a warm Oatmeal cookie in your hand in less than 30 minutes!
Simple and quick!
These cookies are super simple to make and you could have them warm and ready to eat in less than 30 minutes.
Start by pre-heating your oven and preparing 3 baking sheets with parchment paper. Secondly, combine your dry ingretients (all-purpose flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt) and set them aside
Next, Beat your butter and sugars until light and fluffy, for about 1 1/2 minutes, then add your eggs and vanilla and mix. After this, add dry ingredients, mix them with the rest of your dough and add oats, chocolate chips and dry cranberries. Scrape the sides of your bowl to make sure everything is well combined.
Drop your dough into your prepared baking sheets and bake for 10 minutes. Either place them on a wire rack to cool or eat them warm straight out of the oven -I can attest the latter tastes extremely good!
