Soft Sugar Cookies With White Chocolate, Almonds, and Cranberries
Debbie Kohler
"This recipe makes a great Christmas cookie. The white chocolate chips, chopped almonds, and dried cherry-flavored cranberries create the perfect combination in a simple soft sugar cookie dough. It just seems to taste like a 'mouthful of Christmas.'"
