Soft Sugar Cookies With White Chocolate, Almonds, and Cranberries

Soft Sugar Cookies With White Chocolate, Almonds, and Cranberries
  • 1 cup shortening
  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 2 1/4 cups white sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • 5 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 cup slivered almonds, chopped
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1 (6 ounce) package cherry-flavored sweetened dried cranberries (such as cherry-flavor Craisins®)


  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Beat sugar, shortening, and butter together in a large bowl with an electric mixture until smooth. Beat eggs, vanilla extract, and almond extract into butter mixture.
  3. Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture until dough just comes together. Stir almonds, white chocolate chips, and dried cranberries into the dough.
  4. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough about 2 inches apart on baking sheets. Bake cookies until bottom edges are light golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool cookies for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
