Oatmeal Craisin Chocolate Chip Cookies

I baked these little treats thanks to the Ocean Spray website for my family for Easter and they were a hit!

Ingredients:

2/3 cup unsalted butter (or margarine), softened

2/3 cup brown sugar

2 large eggs

1 1/2 cups old-fashioned oats

1 1/2 cups flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 5-ounce package Ocean Spray® Craisins® Original Dried Cranberries

2/3 cup white chocolate chips 

(I used ⅓ cup white chocolate chips in half the batter and 

⅓ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips in the other half to try and please everyone)

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 375ºF. Using an electric mixer, beat butter or margarine and brown sugar together in a medium mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Add eggs, mixing well. In a separate mixing bowl, combine oats, flour, baking soda and salt. Add dry mix to butter mixture in several additions, mixing well after each addition. Stir in dried cranberries. At this point, I separated the mixture into two halves. I left one half in the electric mixer, and added the white chocolate chips, mixing well to incorporate them into the mixture.

Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets (I greased my cookie sheet). 

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. 

While those were baking, I put the other half of the cookie dough into the mixer again, this time mixing in the semi-sweet chocolate chips. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets (again...I greased my cookie sheet). Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. The recipe calls for approximately 2 1/2 dozen cookies. I think I made less, making my cookies a little bigger than a teaspoon full of cookie dough.

Enjoy! :)
