Made these the other day and they turned out so good! I couldn’t decide between making these cookies and the white chocolate cranberry cookies. So I added some dried unsweetened cranberries and white chocolate chips to the batter in this recipe and the cookies tasted amazing! Thanks for such a great easy and healthy recipe 😊
I am so glad you liked these cookies, Brooke! I love how you combined the cinnamon flavor with white chocolate and cranberries! 🙂 – Krista <3
