Author: Andrea Giang
Soft and chewy dark chocolate chunk cookies filled with dried cranberries. These cranberry dark chocolate chunk cookies are so delicious and perfect for the holidays.
Ingredients
  • ½ cup butter at room temperature
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1¾ cup all purpose flour
  • ¾ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ cup dark chocolate chunks or chocolate chips
  • ¾ cup dried cranberries
  • Vanilla sea salt (optional)
Instructions
  1. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until combined. Add egg and vanilla extract, then whisk until combined.
  2. In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together all purpose flour and baking soda.
  3. Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Mix the ingredients until combined.
  4. Fold in the dark chocolate chunks and dried cranberries.
  5. Refrigerate the cookie dough for about an hour.
  6. When ready to bake the cookies, preheat the oven to 350F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside for now.
  7. Use a cookie scooper or a tablespoon to measure out the cookie doughs and roll them into balls. Place them evenly apart, about 12 cookie dough balls on a baking sheet.
  8. Bake the cookies for about 10 minutes until the edges are slightly browned. Remove the cookies from the oven. Drop the baking sheet with the cookies on a sturdy surface a few times. By banging the cookies, the melted chocolate will fall into the crevices of the cookies.
  9. Let the cookies cool for several minutes before transferring over to a cooling rack.
  10. Serve these cranberry dark chocolate chunk cookies warm topped with vanilla sea salt if desired.
  11. Enjoy!
