- 1 Cup Slivered Almonds
- 1 Cup All-Purpose Flour
- 1 Cup Bread Flour
- 2/3 Cup Almond Flour
- 1 Tsp Baking Soda
- 1/2 Tsp Kosher Salt
- 14 Oz White Chocolate Cut into small chunks
- 3/4 Cup Granulated Sugar
- 3/4 Cup Dark Brown Sugar
- 2 Large Eggs
- 2 Large Egg Yolk
- 1 Tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
Preheat the oven to 350°. Spread the slivered almonds in a pie plate and toast for about 8 minutes, until fragrant. Let cool.
In a medium bowl, whisk all three flours with the baking soda and salt. Add the white chocolate, cranberries and the cooled almonds and toss well.
In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle, beat the butter with both sugars at medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Scrape down the side of the bowl. Beat in the whole eggs, egg yolks and vanilla until incorporated, about 2 minutes. At low speed, beat in the dry ingredients. Cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the dough until it is well chilled, at least 1 hour or overnight.
Preheat the oven to 350° and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Bake the cookies in two batches: Scoop 1/4-cup balls of the dough onto the baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart; lightly press them down with your palm. Bake in the upper and lower thirds of the oven for about 17 minutes, until the cookies are golden around the edges but slightly soft in the center; shift the baking sheets from top to bottom and front to back halfway through. Let the cookies cool slightly, then transfer them to a rack to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining dough.
