How to Make Cranberry Vanilla Chip Oatmeal Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened butter and 1 cup of granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon of salt.
