How to Make Best Ever Cranberry Chip Cookies

  1. Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) margarine, ½ cup shortening, and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar and ¾ cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  2. Beat in 2 large eggs, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  4. Stir in 1 cup white chocolate chips, 1 cup pecan halves, and 1 cup dried cranberries.
  5. Drop by rounded tablespoons (or use a medium cookie scoop) onto ungreased baking sheets.
  6. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 8-10 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden. Do not overbake; cookies should be moist and chewy.
  7. Let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
