Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup unsalted butter softened
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ⅔ cup light brown sugar the brown sugar should be soft
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup craisins (dried cranberries)
- 1 ½ cups rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In the bowl of an electric stand mixer, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar for 1-2 minutes.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix until well incorporated.
- Add the flour, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon. Mix until well incorporated.
- Fold the rolled oats and craisins and chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Scoop dough out and shape it into balls. You'll need about 2 tablespoons of cookie dough per ball. Place each cookie ball on the prepared baking dish spacing 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes and keep in mind that the center will be very soft but don't overbake. Allow them to cool for a couple of minutes and enjoy warm!
Notes
- When the cookies come out of the oven, they will be a little soft in the center, but that's okay. Allow them to sit for a couple of minutes before eating.
- It's crucial that your brown sugar is soft and fresh. If the brown sugar is too hard, your cookies won't turn out soft and chewy.
- Chill the cookie dough for at least 1 hour before baking.
