This is yet another baking goodie I have made from The Goddess's Kitchen and the Goddess can really bake cookies and cakes, she is a real proof of that.
She is another baker I never miss a post as I know it will be something yummy she is whipping up in her oven.
The moment I saw these Cranberry and white chocolate cookies I knew I was going to make them. And that was last week. When it comefor baking goodies I am fast.
It is the first time I am using oats in any kind of cooking as I don't like oats ( for me oats reminds me of those mushy mush , I call them thing that my mom and all eat for breakfast saying it is really healthy for you).
I still don't want them for breakfast, but I love them in cookies.
These cookies were really DELICIOUS. I will be making these much more often and they are so easy to make. And the taste it is so so yummy.
I baked them yesterday and when my daughter came home for lunch I told her I am going to make cookies with white chocolate and she told me if i would make them with dark chocolate as she don't like white. So i made with dark chocolate and used walnuts. Maria made them with white chocolate and pecan nuts.
Nags havve been giving wonderful tips for taking pictures in her place . So I did few of the things she wrote one should do.
I took more pictures than usual and my pictures are always so dark, it could be also mostly i take my pictures in the evening or there is no light inside.
She gave a tip take them in your balcony and that is what i did yesterday. I took the plate of cookies to the balcony and clicked hoping next door guys are not watching a crazy women taking pictures of few cookies in a plate :-)

I have to admit the picture is much more brighter than my usual pictures.
Makes 30
Ingredients
150g plain flour
½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
75g rolled oats (not instant)
125g soft butter
75g dark brown sugar
100g caster sugar ( next time when i make, i won't add this sugar)
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
75g dried cranberries
50g pecans, roughly chopped ( i used walnuts)
150g white chocolate chips ( i used dark chocolate)
Preheat the oven to 180oC/ 350°F/gas mark 4.
Measure out the flour, baking powder, salt and rolled oats into a bowl.Put the butter and sugars into another bowl and beat together until creamy — this is obviously easier with an electric mixer of some kind, but you just need to put some muscle into otherwise — then beat in the egg and vanilla.
Beat in the flour, baking powder, salt and oat mixture and then fold in the cranberries, chopped pecans and chocolate chips.Roll tablespoonfuls of dough into a ball with your hands, and then place them on a lined or greased baking sheet and squish the dough balls down with a fork.
You may need two baking sheets or be prepared to make these in two batches.Cook for 15 minutes; when ready, the cookies will be tinged a pale gold, but be too soft to lift immediately off the tray, so leave the tray on a cool surface and let them harden for about 5 minutes.
Remove with a spatula to cool fully on a wire rack.
I halfed the above recipe as hey we are just with three here.
Sending this to Aquadeze for her Lets go nuts : walnuts and Pecan event.
