In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and ½ teaspoon of fine sea salt. Whisk the ingredients together until well combined.

In another mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together ½ cup of granulated sugar, ½ cup of brown sugar, and 12 tablespoons of room temperature unsalted butter. Mix for approximately 3 minutes or until the mixture is light and fluffy.

Add one room temperature egg, beating until well combined. Incorporate the zest of one orange, 2 teaspoons of pure vanilla extract, and continue mixing until well incorporated.

Slowly combine the flour mixture with the butter mixture using the electric mixer. Mix just until combined. Avoid overmixing.

Once the dough comes together, stop mixing. Gently fold in ¾ cup of white chocolate chips and 2 cups of fresh cranberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Use an ice cream scoop to place mounds of cookie dough 2 inches apart on the tray.

Bake at 350°F for 17 to 20 minutes or until the cookies are golden brown at the edges.

Allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes on the baking tray before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Now, savor the festive goodness of your homemade White Chocolate Cranberry Cookies!

Conclusion:

Celebrate the season with these delectable cookies that blend the sweetness of white chocolate with the burst of flavor from fresh cranberries. Happy baking and happy holidays!
