I got a precious new kitten; his name is Francis.
It broke my heart taking him away from his family, so I knew I had to make him feel extra special when he came home with me…
…which is why I made him a house!!
To find instructions on how to make the house, click here.
I also made him some milk and cookies… but he only liked the milk. 😉
These cookies are amazing though!! Seriously good. Maybe even my new favorite… the different flavors all go together so well. I was looking for a “one bowl” recipe and these are what I found. So they’re obviously easy, since they’re one bowl, but the taste is out of this world!!
One Bowl Cranberry-White Chocolate Orange Cookies
King Arthur Flour
Yield: about 4 1/2 dozen cookies.
1 cup (7 1/2 ounces) packed brown sugar
3/4 cup (5 1/4 ounces) granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla
1/8 teaspoon orange oil (4 to 5 drops) (can substitute with almond!)
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 3/4 cups (11 5/8 ounces) All-Purpose Flour
1 1/2 cups (9 ounces) white chocolate chips
1 1/2 cups (5 1/4 ounces) dried cranberries
1 cup (3 3/4 ounces) chopped pecans or walnuts
Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto light-colored baking sheets. Flatten into disks, using gentle pressure from your fingers.
Bake the cookies in a preheated 375°F oven for 10-12 minutes, until the bottoms and edges are lightly browned; the tops shouldn’t brown, they should still be slightly gooey. Remove the cookies from the oven, let them rest on the pan for 5 minutes, then slide them onto a rack to cool completely.
