1 1/4 cups soft butter or margarine
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 teaspoon orange zest
3 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups white chocolate chips
1 cup dried cranberries
1 cup coarsely chopped pecans

Steps:

Heat oven to 350°F. Cream together butter and sugars. Beat in eggs one at a time. Add extracts and orange zest. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Mix in dry ingredients about a third at a time until incorporated (dough will be a little crumbly but not dry). Stir in white chocolate chips, dried cranberries, and pecans. Drop by rounded spoonfuls on to a silpat or parchment lined baking sheet (I roll my dough into 1 ¼" balls for more uniform cookies). Allow your baking sheets to cool a bit between batches (placing dough on a hot baking sheet causes the cookies to flatten out too much). Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden. Cool cookies for 2 minutes on the pan before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
