Coconut, Cranberry and White Chocolate Chip Cookies

Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu!



This recipe is for Coconut, Cranberry and White Chocolate Chip Cookies. I have to admit - I'm not a coconut fan, but my mother is, so she really enjoyed these cookies. And, when they were baking, the kitchen smelt amazing! Nothing beats the smell of coconut and white chocolate baking in the oven.

A Simple List of Ingredients:

1. Oats
2. Light Brown Sugar
3. Dessicated Coconut
4. Sugar
5. Butter
6. Vanilla Flavouring

9. An Egg
10. Bicarbonate of Soda
11. Dried Cranberries
12. Plain Flour
