These cranberry chocolate chip cookies are bake sale good! They’re the kind of cookies you’d bring to a bake sale and then you’d buy them back because they’re just that good.

 

In a bowl cram butter and sugars. That molasses is my brown sugar, I only had a bit of brown sugar so I added some molasses and white sugar to make up the difference.

 

Add eggs

 

and vanilla

and mix well.

 

Add in flour, baking soda and a pinch of salt.

 

Mix it all together.

 

Add chocolate chips and dried sweetened cranberries. mix well. Refrigerate for about an hour or more.

 

scoop out dough and place on cookie sheets with enough room to spread.

 

Because they will spread.

 

Bake at 375 for 12- 14 minutes.

 

Let them cool on the cookie sheet for a few minutes.

 

Then transfer to a wire rack.

 

If there are any left, you could freeze some for eating later.

I’ll have to make more tomorrow,  6 and a half cookies just isn’t enough to bring to the photography class on Saturday!
