These little Cranberry and White Chocolate Chip Biscuits are sure to be a hit … soft, chewy and simply delicious! The cranberries add a really sweet flavour and compliment the white chocolate beautifully. These biscuits freeze well and make the perfect addition to school lunchboxes.
I buy the Ocean Spray Craisins for this recipe and you’ll find them in the baking aisle at the supermarket with other dried fruits. Enjoy!
- ¾ cup butter, room temperature
- ½ cup brown sugar, firmly packed
- ½ cup white sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups plain flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup dried cranberries
- ¾ cup white chocolate chips
- Line baking trays with baking paper and set aside until later. Preheat oven to 170 C.
- Using an electric mixer, cream together the butter, brown sugar and white sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix with the electric mixer until just combined.
- Remove bowl from mixer, add plain flour, baking powder and salt and mix until just combined.
- Stir in the cranberries and white chocolate chips.
- Roughly roll balls of dough to approximately the same size as a Rum Ball and place on the prepared cookie trays. Gently flatten each biscuit just a little.
- Bake for approximately 11 – 12 minutes or until biscuits are lightly browned.
- Allow biscuits to cool for around 5 minutes on the trays and then transfer to cooling racks to cool completely. Biscuits are suitable to freeze.

What beautiful looking biscuits. They remind me of the type of cookies my mother used to make and they’d be fresh out of the oven when I walked in the door from school. I love the combination of white chocolate and cranberries xx
