These were marvelous! Possibly my favorite cookies I've ever made. I only got 17 cookies out of half the recipe, but perhaps I made them a little large. I will add more pistachios next time, but I loved the combination of white chocolate, dried cranberries, and pistachios. And they're definitely good at any time of the year, not just the winter holidays!
