    White Chocolate Cranberry Oatmeal Cookies

    Warm and chewy oatmeal cookies with cranberry and white chocolate morsels are absolutely delicious. I love these with my morning coffee if any happen to be left over once my family finds them. Just this morning I opened the cookie jar only to see the empty bottom with a couple of tiny crumbs. I would suggest making enough of these to go around if you want to appreciate them during the holiday season but it is so easy to make I may just whip up another batch tonight. These have a delightfuly tasty oatmeal texture with bursts of cranberry juices and buttery rich white chocolate. This is a very easy to follow affordable recipe and is fun for the entire family to make and enjoy. Perfect bite size snacks that also would go great at the office party if you need to bring something a bit festive but not to taxing to make.
