Cranberry White Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies #SecretRecipeClub

I'm so excited to be joining in another month of the Secret Recipe Club!!  This month my blog assignment was Without Adornment. 

I'm going to be honest and say that I was nervous picking out a recipe.  Bean's blog is a gluten-free & sometimes other allergy free blog!  I know absolutely NOTHING about gluten free recipes & products & cooking!!  But I loved reading through her posts and recipes and learning more about gluten-free cooking.  I finally decided to try her Gluten Free White Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies with Cranberries.  Since we don't have the allergies here in the Test Kitchen, I adapted her recipe to fit what I had in my pantry & we loved these cookies!  The Mister ate 6 out of the first dozen that came out of the oven!!
