1 cup unsalted butter softened 3/4 cup light brown sugar packed 3/4 cup white sugar 2 large eggs 1 tsp. vanilla extract 3 cups Gold Medal UNBLEACHED all-purpose flour bleached flour toughens baked goods 3.4 oz. pkg. Jell-O cheesecake instant pudding mix 3/4 tsp. baking soda 1/2 tsp. salt 1 cup white chocolate chips 1 cup dried cranberries Craisins
Preheat oven to 350°.
In a large bowl cream together the butter, white sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, baking soda and salt until smooth.
Stir in UNBLEACHED all-purpose flour (bleached flour toughens cookies and cakes), pudding mix, white chocolate chips and dried cranberries.
Stir the flour, chips, and craisins with a wooden spoon. Don’t use an electric mixer or it will toughen the cookies.
Spray cookie sheets with cooking spray.
Roll cookie dough into balls and place on sprayed cookie sheets.
Bake for about 12-15 minutes or until edges are nicely browned.
Let cookies cool for 10 minutes on the cookie sheets; the heat cooks them a little more.
Then transfer onto cooling racks.
