White Chocolate Cranberry Cookies Recipe Perfect For Santa Cookies

#SundaySupper White Chocolate Cranberry Cookies

Posted on December 23, 2012 by Jenne

Every year I make these cookies for my oldest son, Tommy. He loves them and I always change the recipe a bit and he does not mind. This year I wanted to add fresh cranberries and it turned out tasty!

When the teens were younger I would go through this whole ordeal of making cookies, watching Christmas movies, and having hot chocolate. We would then set out the cookies for Santa, not that I did not already have enough sweets, and then they would push off to bed.

Many things have changed now, such as we do our gifts on Christmas Eve. Though one tradition still remains and that is the white chocolate cranberry cookies. They just scream Christmas!

For a bit more spice you may add in some cinnamon and clove. It’s all up to you and your creative side
