Description

Delightful cookies combining creamy white chocolate, sweet dried cranberries, and salty pistachios for a unique flavor experience.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3/4 cup (12 Tbsp; 170g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
  • 3/4 cup (150g) packed light or dark brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg, at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour (spooned & leveled)
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch (aka cornflour)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup (135g) white chocolate morsels or chopped white chocolate
  • 3/4 cup (75g) dried cranberries
  • 1/2 cup (62g) salted pistachios, shells removed

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, use a handheld mixer to beat the softened butter for one minute at medium speed until smooth and creamy.
  2. Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar, mix on medium-high speed until fluffy and light in color.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract at high speed, scraping down the sides as needed.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually mix dry ingredients into the wet ingredients at low speed until combined, forming a thick dough.
  6. Stir in white chocolate morsels, dried cranberries, and chopped pistachios.
  7. Cover the dough with aluminum foil or plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
  8. When ready to bake, let the dough rest at room temperature for 10 minutes and preheat oven to 350°F (177°C).
  9. Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough, roll into balls, and place on baking sheets 2 inches apart.
  10. Bake for 8-10 minutes until edges are barely golden brown.
  11. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack.

Notes

Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. Dough can be frozen for longer storage.
