  3. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  4. Fold in the white chocolate chips and dried cranberries until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Baking

  3. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
