    Rejection is no fun. Whether it is having your beloved images rejected by the food snob sites, or simply not being chosen to participate in a sponsored campaign. Either way, it is no fun! I applied for a campaign last month that would highlight oatmeal cookies at a holiday party. I created these delicious Cranberry White Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies in my head.....

    and submitted my application. Rejected...okay, not chosen.....same difference! Life goes on, and I decided to make them anyway for you, my beloved friends. I am so glad that I did, they are delicious.....

    You want to know something? I have always been leery of trying cranberries. They look like red raisins, and I cannot stand raisins!! But when I received those Cranberry Vanilla Shortbread cookies in the mail for the Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap, I took a deep breath...and a big a bite...and I loved them! Who knew?

    Cranberry White Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies - Delicious! cookingwithcurls.com

    This recipe is pretty much the same recipe that we all grew up with, I just made a few tweaks to create the perfect cookie. They rejected my idea, so I don't have to tell you which brand I used! 😉

    How to make Cranberry White Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies:

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside. Beat butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together in a large bowl until creamy.....

    My friend Claire {A Little Claireification} jokingly suggested that I should create all of my submitted ideas and post them without the names of the companies, or using their competitors, LOL. That's actually not such a bad idea. Some of them were pretty good ideas, like these Cranberry White Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies. But then again, cookies are always a good idea!
