    Tips and Tricks for Making This Quick & Easy Cranberry Chip Cookies Recipe: 

    • I like to scoop my cookie dough and freeze them for about 15 minutes before baking. This allows the butter to chill up that way when they bake, they don't spread as much and you're left with a thicker chewier cookie.
    • Do you have fresh cranberries at home? Go ahead and use them instead of buying dried cranberries. Just make sure to add ¼ cup more of fresh cranberries to the measurement specified in the recipe 🙂

    How to Make this Quick & Easy Cranberry Chip CookiesRecipe:

    Before starting off with the mixing process, make sure to preheat oven to 350F.

    Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Don't rush things, add just one egg at a time. This will make your cookie dough be properly mixed and all the ingredients are well distributed to all the cookies:

    Beat until well combined after each egg. Sometimes the mixture can look curdled but don't be nervous. Just keep mixing until it comes together! Now it's time to stir in the vanilla:

    Once they are lightly browned around the edges and the centers look set, remove from the oven:
