These are very hearty cookies bursting with flavors and textures. I made them as part of my holiday gifts to my coworkers, and they all loved them--even those who usually don't like cranberries.
In a large bowl using an electric mixer, cream together the sugar, brown sugar, butter, and orange zest.
Add in eggs and vanilla extract and mix.
Add the cinnamon, baking soda, salt, and flour and mix well.
Add the oatmeal, dried cranberries, and white chocolate chips. You may need to hand-mix as the dough will be quite stiff. Make sure everything is well-distributed.
Using a 1 5/8 ounce ice cream scoop (#20 yellow handle, about 3 TBSP), scoop dough, level flat, and deposit onto greased cookie sheet about 2-3 inches apart.
Using a fork, partially flatten each dough ball until it is about 3/4" to 1/2" thick.
Bake at 375° for 15-17 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove from oven and then transfer cookies to cooling rack.
