    It's officially December! Which means it's cookie season, and it also means Christmas recipes are TOTALLY fair game from now on. Yes? Yes. I am glad we agree. This year, I once again participated in a Food Blogger Cookie Exchange, and these little beauties are what I whipped up! Double Chocolate Chip Cranberry Cookies, packed with white and dark chocolate chips and chewy dried cranberries. SO yum, and perfect for winter. Let's bake them!

    I am so close to being off of school for winter break that I can count the days on two hands, and honestly I don't know how I feel about it! Like, YES I'm about to have a whole blissful month off to do whatever I please. BUT also I have to somehow take like 5 tests in the span of 8 days so that makes me a little bit nervous. Ooop. But then! FREEDOM! I have so many recipes to make for y'all and I'm so excited!

    Also, sidenote, can I just say it blows my mind that I've already {only?} been back in school for the past 7 months?! And I'm halfway done with the classroom part of my degree???? Cue existential crisis. I'm sure this is going to be a recurring theme and in the summer, you will SURELY see a post from me saying something along the lines of, "Now they want me to go practice real medicine in a real hospital?!" But really. All things considered, I truly do love PA school and I've learned so much! My favorite party trick by far is telling people I'm a food blogger though 😉

    BUT, enough about my life! So these cookies are fantastically chewy and soft in the middle, with irresistible crispy edges. I wanted to go with the classic combo of white chocolate and cranberry, but as you all know, my household revolves around dark chocolate so I threw in a handful of that too. The combination is delicious! Sweet white chocolate, slightly bitter dark chocolate, and tangy cranberries, all in a blanket of buttery brown sugar deliciousness. Yummmm. Wish I had some now!

    Of course, since this was a cookie exchange, I have to share the love! I received these delicious Raspberry Almond Shortbread Cookies from Pale Yellow Bakes, and these Chocolate Peppermint Cookies from Seduction in the Kitchen. Both super yummy!

    Serves: 2 dozen
    Ingredients
    • 2¼ cups all-purpose flour
    • ½ teaspoon baking soda
    • ½ teaspoon salt
    • ¾ cup unsalted butter, melted {at room temp}
    • 1 cup packed brown sugar
    • ½ cup white sugar
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1 egg
    • 1 egg yolk
    • ¾ cup white chocolate chips
    • ¾ cup dark chocolate chips
    • ½ cup dried cranberries
    Instructions
    1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking soda. Set aside.
    2. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the melted butter and sugars, and beat until well-incorporated.
    3. Add in the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract, and beat until light and fluffy. Add in the dry ingredients, and mix until combined.
    4. Stir in the chocolate chips and cranberries, and place dough in the fridge for 30 or more minutes.
