It's not Dave's cookie recipe (working on him to add those) but this is definitely a new family favorite since this past holiday season. Dangerously good!!!
Makes about 4 dozen.
1 c. (2 sticks) of butter, softened
1 c. firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 c. granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 T. vanilla
2 c. all purpose flour
1 t. baking soda
1/2 t. baking powder
1/2 t. salt
2 c. dried sweetened cranberries (like Craisins)
1 1/2 c. pecan pieces (toasted or not, either works fine)
1 1/4 c. uncooked quick cooking oats
12 oz. white chocolate chips
3 T vegetable shortening
Preheat oven to 375. Beat butter at medium speed until creamy. Gradually add sugars, beating well. Add egg and vanilla, blending well. Combine flour, soda, baking powder and salt in a bowl and whisk.
Gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture, beating until blended.
Stir in cranberries, pecans and oatmeal until blended. Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls, 2 inches apart on lightly greased baking sheets. Bake for 9 - 11 minutes and cool completely.
Microwave white chocolate with vegetable shortening on high for about 1 minute or until chips melt. Stir quickly, once only if possible, until smooth. Dip half of each cookie or dip tops of cookies into white chocolate, letting excess drip back into bowl. Place on waxed paper to sit until firm.
