Cranberry Orange White Chocolate Chip Cookies {Gluten Free Option}
Hey guys! It’s almost Christmas! Can you believe it?? I know I sure can’t.. this whole year has been a whirlwind, I just can’t seem to wrap my head around the fact that it’s almost over. I can however, wrap my mouth around these Cranberry Orange White Chocolate Chip Cookies and not stop (believe me, I tried stopping).
These are my favorite Christmas cookies and honestly I’ve never made then on my own, now I think it’s because I’m too afraid to have a whole batch in my house! I used to make these around Christmas with my Mom and sister as a teenager, then I left home and then the whole gluten thing happened and I was afraid that a GF version just wouldn’t be as good or nearly what I remembered.
Well, I was wrong (happens a lot folks!) and I’ve never been happier about it! Not only were these all that I remembered and more, but you definitely can’t tell they are gluten free (as is the aim with all of my cooking). The texture is perfect and the flavors and colors just scream CHRISTMAS!
On top of all that fabulous news, these cookies freeze perfectly. I threw a batch of them in the freezer after they were fully prepared (glaze and all) and all they needed was about 30 minutes on the counter at room temp and they were ready to devour. I always love that because it keeps me from over indulging (too much) and I get to stretch out enjoying all my holiday favorites. Happy holidays my sweet readers!! Xoxoxo
