My son and I have a family tradition of baking holiday cookies. We used to bake sugar cookies cut into holiday shapes and decorate them with frosting and sprinkles. But now that he is older, we are more focused on taste. These White Chocolate Cranberry cookies are exquisite. They are our new holiday cookie tradition.
