CP's Cranberry & White Chocolate Cookies

[CreamPuff63]

These are currently my son's favourite biscuits, and are fortunately so quick and easy to make

Ingredients:
25g almonds
40g white chocolate
150g unsalted butter
150g Plain flour
1/2 tsp bicarb soda
1/2 tsp salt
150g light soft brown sugar
50g rolled oats
50g dried cranberries
1 large egg yolk, or 2 small yolks (Note: yolks only)

Method:
Preheat oven 190^o / 375^oF
1.  Add almonds to TM bowl 10 Secs / Speed 7. Set aside.
2.  Roughly handchop chocolate. (You could do in TM, but I find handchopping gives more consistent chunks). Set aside with almonds.
3.  Add butter to TM bowl 1 - 2 mins / 60^o / Speed 3 until butter has just melted.
4.  Add all ingredients to the TM including almond meal and chocolate, and Knead / 10 Secs until just combined.
5.  Using your hands, form into walnut sized balls and arrange on two large nonstick baking sheets. Gently press down with a fork, leaving space between them for the biscuits to spread.
6.  Bake in the oven 10-12 minutes, then remove and leave to cool on a wire rack.

These are gorgeous CP!  Went down well with my coffee this morning.  I only ever allow myself 1 biscuit, but I did have a second of these. 

I used white choc bits so didn't need to chop the choc and would use them again.  So quick and easy, a great conversion, thanks CP 

I will have to try one again tomorrow, just to see how the sweetness is and whether I could afford to reduce the sugar a little next time.  It's a hard task but someone has to do it.

JulieO they look simply divine.  I bought some white chocolate and needed more cranberries so I can make these on the weekend.

These are wonderful biscuits!  I made some of these a while back, and accidentally used goji berries instead of cranberries, and they were really nice too.

Will be making another batch the day before we make a trip down the coast to visit daughter and grandson, they will love these.
