Cranberry Chocolate Oatmeal Monster Cookies image

This is a great easy cookie recipe that kids love! I adapted it from a recipe I found in Family Fun magazine. You can substitute the Cranberries and Chocolate pieces for any toppings you like - nuts, M&M's, and other dried fruits - but I really like the combination of the dried cranberries and chocolate.

Yield 22 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup butter, cubed at room temperature
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups rolled oats
1 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
1 cup semisweet mini chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Sift the dry goods together into a large bowl. Set aside.
  • Cream together the butter and both sugars, then beat in the eggs. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Add the dry goods to the wet works a small amount at the time until well combined.
  • Using a spatula, fold in the rolled oats until thoroughly combined. Add in the dried cranberries and both types of chocolate chips.
  • Use a 1/3 or 1/4 cup measuring cup to transfer the dough onto an ungreased baking sheet. Use the floured bottom of a drinking glass to smash the cookies flat.
  • Bake for 13 to 15 minutes or until lightly brown.
  • When they have slightly cooled, but are still warm, transfer the cookies onto a cooling rack.
  • Enjoy with a big glass of milk!
