White Chocolate Cranberry Pecan Cookies

It always feels a bit strange to crack open the liquor so early in the morning.

Yet, no matter how innocent my intent seems to be, I always feel like I need to have it hidden deep down in a discreet brown paper bag.

Just in case someone is peering in my windows, you know?

I’m positively sure the paparazzi is always lurking outside waiting for that money shot – me holding a big bottle of liquor at 4:30 in the morning.  Because I’m all that and a bag of chips.  And, of course, the paparazzi has absolutely nothing else to do.

Yet, this always seems to be the time that I get inspiration to bake.

Or, maybe that’s just the liquor talking.

What I love about these cookies is how gorgeous and festive they are all baked up.  The bright red cranberries paired with the creamy white chocolate chips and the golden brown butter color ~ add a dash of brandy and the rich flavor of pecans, and you definitely have a cookie that is snap worthy.

Bring on the paparazzi.
