Yield: approximately 3 dozen cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 1⁄2 cups firmly packed light brown sugar
- 1⁄2 cup sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 3⁄4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.

- In a medium bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture, beating until combined. Add oats, white chocolate, and cranberries, beating until combined. Drop batter by heaping tablespoonfuls onto prepared pans, spacing 2 inches apart.
