Lemon Cranberry, White Chocolate Chip Cookies
Do not make these cookies if you are on a diet! Restrain yourself from
eating them until they fully cool. The cranberries stay hot for quite
some time.
Ingredients:
- 2 sticks unsalted butter
- 8 ounces of cream cheese
- 1-1/4 cups granulated sugar
- All of the zest from 2 large lemons
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup Quaker Oats
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 cup frozen cranberries
- 1 cup frozen white chocolate chips
Process:
Cream the butter, cream cheese, lemon zest, and sugar. Add eggs and
vanilla, and mix well. Mix the flour, oats, and baking soda in a large
bowl. Then mix in the cranberries and white chocolate chips. Add to the
mixer and combine. Roll into balls 1" in diameter. Bake at 350 for 10-12
minutes. Yields 4 dozen cookies.

Browned Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
Comments (7)Trudymom, Here's one of the recipes...it's the Lemon Lover's Cookie, and made entirely in the food processor, so it's super easy. I first made these in August 2004, to try out my new convection oven, and they were an instant hit, light and delicate. I added the zest of two lemons to punch up the flavor. Keeping an extra cookie roll in the fridge or freezer is nice to have on hand. I recently visited some friends in New Mexico and took them a bag, along with a few for ourselves. They cookies keep beautifully, and still tasted fresh after 10 days on the road. Lemon Lovers Cookies This is a very delicate cookie, from The Lemon Lovers Cookbook. Plan ahead, though, as you have to leave the dough in the refrigerator for several hours before baking. 1 large lemon, zest of 1 cup granulated sugar 1 cup butter, chilled and cut into pieces (2 sticks) 2 1/3 cups cake flour, sifted 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 teaspoon salt Process the lemon zest and sugar in a food processor until the zest is as fine as the sugar. Add the butter. Process until fluffy. Scrape down the bowl. Add the flour, baking soda and salt. Process briefly until mixed. Form dough into two 1-1/2-inch-round logs and wrap each in wax paper. Refrigerate until firm. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Slice each log into 1/4-inch thick cookies and place on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until golden around the edges.

Comments (3)That recipe is very similar to my favourite Oatmeal Cookie. About the only difference is the addition of an extra egg and it doesn't contain cinnamon or nutmeg. Like Woodie I'm not a fan of raisins but I don't mind cranberries. I add Callebaut White Chocolate cut into chunks. Also try them with a sprinkle of sea salt.
