Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Orange zest
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Dried cranberries
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar with a hand mixer or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and orange zest.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, beating on low speed until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Gently fold in the dried cranberries and semi-sweet chocolate chips with a spatula.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden while the centers remain soft.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
