A festive delicacy is a chewy chocolate mixture with dried cranberries. White whole wheat flour is my preferred choice because it is lighter than ordinary whole wheat flour.

wonderful!
I found them to be very dry. Decent flavor but will not be a repeat recipe for me.
Dry dry dry. Made exactly as shown. We choked down a few with milk and threw the rest away. Total waste of ingredients.
I made this recipe in its original form and I felt it was “okay”. Not great, but okay. I felt there was too much flour and too much chocolate (can there really be such a thing?). I also felt that the cranberries were a bit lost when it came to flavor.I tried the recipe again with a few tweaks because I felt it really had a lot of potential. I lowered the flour to one cup each of white and whole wheat. I added a teaspoon of vanilla, omitted the semisweet chips, added 1/2 teaspoon of cardamon, and added one teaspoon of fresh orange zest. The final result was beautiful. The final recipe gets 5 stars.
Ive made this recipe twice and followed it to a T. The cookies are dee-lecious!! My husband and I can’t stop eating them. The cranberries are much better than raisins in this oatmeal cookie. Love love love. And so easy to make. Thanks for sharing.
Just finished making this recipe, and I ended up with 48 cookies instead (by using 1.5″ scoop). Actually, I ended up with 46, but that’s ’cause I ate two. 🙂 Anyway…that aside…These are quite good, but I felt lacked *something*. Maybe a pinch of cinnamon. Or toasted pecans. Perhaps a tad more salt. I don’t have time with holiday baking to go experimenting with it now, so I’m just going to melt a bit of white chocolate and drizzle the top for holiday flair and leave it at that! Also, these don’t spread out much, and they kind of stayed in lump shapes when I baked them (after measuring with my scoop). I think next time I’ll press them down a bit.
These cookies are the best! I made them with my friends, and all of them agreed it was the best cookie they had ever eaten. Thank you so much for this fabulous recipe!
I really like these, but I feel that there is too much flour. I’ll be trying these again with 2 cups instead of 3 cups.
These are indeed thick, but good.
Great cookie, full of flavour and character. Mine didn’t spread out too much and stayed in the shape that I dropped them onto the sheet in so they looked a bit odd. Other than that, very good.
Ok but nothing special.
These were excellent, however I did what I hate people do…really changed the original recipe. SORRY!! If you like to make things “healthier” keep reading. Changes I made include: 1/2 Butter-1/2 applesauce, added 1/4 white sugar, used 2C. Whole wheat flour + 1/4 C. White flour, used all white chips and dried cherries, added 1T. cinnamon, a few dashes of nutmeg and 2t. of vanilla extract. They were a cake like cookie that EVERYONE enjoyed!
these were really yummy. i didn’t have semisweet chocolate chips or the recommended amount of cranberries or white chocolate chips but it still turned out yummy. they weren’t quite done after 10 minutes so i baked them for about another 5 minutes or until they looked a little golden on top.
I give them 5, my husband says 3, so they get a 4. I used all ww flour, maybe thats why? I think they’re delicious!
I loved these cookies but I only used 2 cups flour instead of the 3 that was suggested. I thought they still could have been a little softer in the inside (but I like my cookies that way). Thanks for the recipe!
Absolutely devine. My husband loves cherries, so instead of cranberries I used dried cherries and he loved these cookies!So did my ten year old!!
Delicious! I made these for a bake sale and got rave reviews. I did make a few changes, though. First, I used half butter and half shortening. Second, I used all white chocolate chips. Third, I only had all-purpose flour, so I did not use any whole wheat flour. Also, I made HUGE cookies (per my husband’s suggestion). Instead of 32 cookies, we got 11! If you decide to go the HUGE route, bake for 12-15 minutes.
Very yummy! I altered the recipe a bit: only two cups of whole wheat flour, one cup cranberries, all semi-sweet chocolate chips, and added half a cup of sliced almonds. The cookies weren’t dry and had a wonderful taste. :]
This are simply ‘omg’ cookies… I followed the recipe exactly.. used my kitchen aid with no problem. I just rolled the dough into a ball in my hand and slightly flattened. They are wonderful!!!!
These cookies were very good. I reduced the white flour to only one cup which I think helped to eliminate the heaviness that an earlier reviewer mentioned. I was out of white chocolate chips so I used all semi-sweet chips. I think my “why do you have to ruin everything with whole wheat flour” high school student will really like these.
Really good! I didn’t add the choc chips, only the white choc chips. Next time I’ll add more cran.s and less choc chips just cuz I like them more fruity. Oh,a nd pack the dough when scooping it out because they are really fall-apart-y.
