Dec 11, 2015, Updated May 07, 2023 Soft and chewy Dark Chocolate Chip Cranberry Cookies are so perfect for the Holidays. Enjoy them with a glass of milk!
Chocolate is evergreen, perfect for every occasion. Think about it, whether it’s your birthday, anniversary or Valentine’s Day or Christmas, chocolate is always there. It is one thing which you can always gift to you loved ones irrespective of the occasion. For me anyway, everyday is perfect for chocolate. I mean I don’t really need an occasion to eat it or bake with it but when it’s the festive season I feel like adding it to every damn thing. Like drinking hot chocolate , like baking chocolate cake or these dark chocolate chip cranberry cookies! ❤
I always make these dark chocolate chip cranberry cookies for the holidays and this year is no exception. I made them just before I left for India. They turned out super soft, chewy, like they were literally melting in my mouth! And you know they taste so amazing just when they are out of the oven right? and so I ate way too many while clicking pictures. Can you blame me?
For this recipe I used my favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe. The biggest change that I made was swapping the entire sugar with SPLENDA® Brown Sugar Blend. The brown sugar blend which is a mix of SPLENDA® Sweetener & Brown Sugar makes these cookies really soft. What also makes them perfect is cornstarch [which acts as a tenderizing agent, prevents gluten formation and makes the cookies softer] and the extra egg yolk. I really insist on using the extra egg yolk, it adds moistness and does make a difference.
I hope these dark chocolate chip cranberry cookies make it to your cookie tray! They are so good and also reduced in calories compared to your regular cookie – all the more reason why you should be making them!
- You can make the dough in advance and keep it in the refrigerator for 2 days. You can also freeze the cookie dough balls. Make cookie balls out of the dough, refrigerate them for 1-2 hours till they are firm and them place them in ziplock bag and freeze them. They should stay good for 2 months and whenever you feel like eating a cookie, just bake them! Dark Chocolate Chip Cranberry Cookies
