White Chip and Craisin Chocolate Cookies

I can't take very much credit for this recipe.  Of the 11 ingredients you will need to make these, I only thought of one of them.  You can find the recipe for White Chip Chocolate Cookies on the back of the Nestle White Chocolate Chip bag.  I thought adding craisins to the recipe would taste really good.  I was right!

Here is what you will need:

 

2 1/4 cups all purpose flour

2/3 cup baking cocoa

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup butter, softened

3/4 cup granulated sugar

2/3 cup packed brown sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 large eggs

1 cup white chocolate chips

1 cup craisins 

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

Beat the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla in a stand mixer until creamy.

 

Beat in the eggs one at a time.  Make sure the mixture is well combined after each.

In a small bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt.  Mix well.

 

Gradually add the flour mixture. I did mine in about 4 batches, making sure it was well-combined after each.

 

Stir in the white chocolate chips and craisins.  I do this part by hand so that the mixer doesn't break the chocolate chips.

 

Use a 1 tablespoon scoop to scoop the cookie dough on a greased cookie sheet.

 

Bake the cookies for about 20 minutes.  If you use a scoop that is bigger than 1 tablespoon, you will probably have to bake the cookies a little bit longer.

 

I made my cookies pretty small as an attempt at portion control.  Then I had three of them.  I hope you love these as much as I do!
