Oatmeal, Cranberry, White Chocolate Chip Cookies

I’m having so much fun with our weekly cookie exchanges. I love seeing what you gals bring! We still have three more weeks in our Plan To Eat Cookie Exchange, so keep ’em coming! At the bottom of this post you’ll find instructions on how to share your cookie links.

This week I’m sharing the Sweetie Pie’s favorite cookie. A few years ago I noticed this recipe on the back of the bag of dried cranberries and tried it out. It was an instant success. It’s not exactly “healthy”, but you could call it a healthy-er cookie–it has oatmeal in it.

You could swap out the dried cranberries for an unsweetened dried fruit, like apricots maybe, but your cookies won’t be as festive. If I’m making these as everyday cookies I use whole wheat flour and half of the sugar. But at Christmas we allow ourselves to indulge and use white flour and full on sugar.

I really want this to be easy and accessible to everyone, so leave me a comment if you have trouble. I’ll do my best to help you out.
