Cranberry Indulgences Cookies

Ingredients:

1/2 cup Butter Flavored Crisco (you may try regular butter, softened, but I find at high altitudes that butter makes cookies very flat & greasy)
plus 3 tsp. water
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1 eggs
1 Tbsp. Vanilla
1.5 cups flour
1/2 tsp.baking soda
3/4 cup white chocolate chips, or half a bag.
3/4 cup dried cranberries, or half a bag of craisins (this will be slightly less than 3/4 cup)

Preheat oven to 375.

Step 1:

In a large bowl or your mixer, cream together the butter, water, brown sugar & white sugar until smooth.

Step 2:

Mixed:

Step 3:

Beat in the egg.

Step 4:

And add in the Vanilla.

Step 5:

Combine the flour and baking soda.

Step 6:

And stir into the sugar mixture.

Step 7:

Mix in the white chocolate chips & cranberries.

Step 8:

Mixed:

Step 9:

Drop by heaping spoonfuls onto baking sheet, or if you have a handy dandy cookie scoop, use that.

Step 10:

Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. For BEST results take them out while they are still doughy. Allow cookies to cool for 1 minute before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.

Step 11:

This will make approx 2 dozen very RICH cookies. You can easily double this recipe- as I find it easier to just use a whole bag of craisins & white chocolate chips; however make sure you have a party to take these too. They aren't named Indulgences for nothing!!

mmm, mmm, good.
