Now.
Go to Target, walk back to the holiday baking section.
Buy every single pouch of Betty Crocker snickerdoodle mix that they have.
Trust me. It is the unicorn of cookie mixes. Difficult to find, but so magical when you do.
Then rush home.
Preheat your oven to 375º
White chocolate cranberry cream cheese snickerdoodles.
(Long title for a simple cookie!)
Ingredients:1 pouch Betty Crocker snickerdoodle cookie mix
4 oz. cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup butter, softened
1 tablespoon water
1 egg
1 cup sweetened dried cranberries
1 cup white chocolate chips
Beat together cream cheese and butter until smooth.
Open cookie mix.
Set aside cinnamon sugar packet.
Add water, egg and cookie mix to cream cheese mixture.
Stir until soft dough forms.
Add in cranberries and white chocolate chips.
Cover & refrigerate 30 minutes.
After that horrible 30 minutes is over, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough into cinnamon sugar.
(Have I told you lately how much I am in love with my cookie scoop? How did I wait so long to finally buy one?)
Roll to coat.
Place two inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake a 375º for 8-9 minutes until edges are set.
Cool one minute then transfer to cooling rack.
Cool completely then gobble them up.
Or share them with your neighbors and friends.
Totally up to you. But I won't judge you if you don't.
Because it is super hard. They are way too good.

*When I run out of my snickerdoodle stockpile I am going to try making these with the easier to obtain sugar cookie mix and cinnamon sugar. I'll let you know how they compare.
