Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 cups dark chocolate chunks
- 1 cup dried cranberries
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated, then mix in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the dark chocolate chunks and dried cranberries until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop 2-tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers are still soft.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies rest on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your Chunky Chocolate Cranberry Cookies with a cold glass of milk or your favorite hot beverage!
