Kris Kringle Cookies


If you're looking for a BIG batch of cookies to make, you've found the perfect recipe! For me,  I wanted to try a cookie recipe that was different, beyond he typical chocolate chip cookie.  This one has white chocolate, pecans and cranberries…it screams Christmas! 

I made the cookies as directed and refrigerated the dough for an hour. 10 minutes was the perfect baking time, and then I moved them to a cooling rack. The cookies were a little thin, but I enjoyed the taste of the cranberries. If I made these again I would use chocolate chips instead of white chocolate for a twist.
