Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F
  • Whisk together the dry ingredients in a large bowl: All-Purpose flour, cake flour, corn starch, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
    1 1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour, 3/4 cup Cake flour, 1 tsp. corn starch, 1/2 tsp. baking soda, 1/2 tsp. baking powder, 1/2 tsp. salt
  • Using a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the cold butter with the white sugar and brown sugar. Cream until light and fluffy, 2-4 minutes.
    1/2 cup butter, cold, unsalted, cubed (8 Tbsp.), 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed, 1/4 cup granulated white sugar
  • Then add in the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract.
    1 large egg, 1 large egg yolk, 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • Gradually add in the dry ingredients and then add in 1 cup white chocolate chips and dried cranberries. If your cookie dough ever feels dry, you can add a splash of milk to hydrate the dough.
    2 cups white chocolate chips, divided, 3/4 cup dried cranberries
  • Shape dough into 6 large cookies (~5 oz. each) or you can make them smaller. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes for large cookies, ~7-8 minutes for smaller cookies. Do not over bake.
  • Let cookies cool on the cookie sheet for 15 minutes and then transfer to a wire cooling rack.
  • Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl in 30 second increments until fully melted and smooth. Dip each cookie half way into the melted chocolate. Alternativley, you can use white chocolate melting wafers.
  • Place on parchment paper. Repeat with remaining cookies. Allow the chocolate to set so it cools and hardens. Enjoy!
