Instructions

Prepare the dough by creaming together softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth. Beat in an egg and vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt; gradually combine with wet ingredients until just mixed.
Fold in white chocolate chips and dried cranberries before chilling the dough for at least 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Scoop chilled dough into balls and space them on baking sheets; bake for 11-12 minutes until lightly golden around the edges.
Allow cookies to cool slightly before transferring to a wire rack.
