Ingredients
Scale
Praline Mixture:
- 1 cup Sugar
- 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter
- 1/4 cup Heavy Cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Cookie Mix-ins:
- 1/2 cup Pecans, chopped
- 1/2 cup Dried Cranberries
- 2 cups Rolled Oats
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
- Prep your ingredients: Roughly chop the pecans and measure out the cranberries and oats.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, unsalted butter, and heavy cream.
- Place over medium heat and stir frequently as the butter melts and the mixture comes to a gentle boil.
- Continue to stir and let the mixture bubble for 2-3 minutes until it thickens slightly and turns a light caramel color.
- Remove from heat immediately and stir in the vanilla extract and salt.
- Add your chopped pecans and dried cranberries, stirring well to combine.
- Fold in the rolled oats until everything is evenly coated with the praline mixture.
- Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, drop mounds of the mixture onto the parchment, spacing them about an inch apart.
- Let the cookies cool completely at room temperature for about 30-40 minutes, or pop the sheet in the fridge to speed things up.
- Once set, enjoy your cookies! Store leftovers in an airtight container.
