Valentine's Cookies!


Cranberry white chocolate chip cookies!! Eat one and you'll be hooked for life! The best part is they're gluten free! So for those of you that can't eat most desserts these are for you! They are a soft cookie filled with lots of cranberries and all the white chocolate chips a person could desire! I hope you enjoy these delicious cookies as much as my family and I do...... Have a great Valentine's day!

White chocolate and cranberry cookies:
2 sticks softened butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/4 cups corn starch (be sure to be very particular while measuring the corn starch)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup dried cranberries
1 cup white chocolate chips
a pinch of xanthum gum

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray cookie sheets with cooking spray. In a large bowl combine the butter,brown sugar, sugar,egg, and vanilla. With a mixer beat on low moving up to high speed. Beat until smooth and light in color.

In a different bowl combine the flour, baking soda, salt, and xanthum gum. Add mixture little by little to the butter mixture. Be sure not to add it to quickly or it will go everywhere (and yes i know this by experience:)
Stir in the cranberries and chocolate chips.

Form the dough into 1 tablespoon balls or hearts. Bake 12 to 15 minutes until lightly browned. Don't over bake or they will be dry. Take the cookies out and let cool. Enjoy!
