Ingredients
- 113 grams unsalted butter
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 100 grams brown sugar, packed
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 195 grams all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 120 grams dried cranberries
- 120 grams chocolate chunks (semi-sweet or dark)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes using a hand or stand mixer.
Step 3
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture. Beat well until fully combined.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Avoid overmixing.
Step 6
Fold in the dried cranberries and chocolate chunks using a spatula until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 7
Scoop tablespoons of dough and roll into balls (approximately 1.5 inches in diameter). Place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers should still look slightly underbaked for a softer texture.
Step 9
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Serve and enjoy! Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
