Blueberry, Caramel and White Chocolate Cookies
Blueberry, Caramel and White Chocolate Cookies are so delicious, with dried blueberries and sweet caramel bites throughout. A great cookie for any occasion.
My second cookie choice for gift giving this year is another cookie with dried fruit. This time it’s blueberries. If you haven’t tried cooking with dried blueberries, try substituting them for dried cranberries or cherries. I love blueberries so it’s nice to bake with them while waiting for the fresh ones to come back to the store. To the blueberries you are going to add Kraft Caramel bits. These are so so so much easier than un-wrapping all those carmel squares. If you can’t find them, you can order them on Amazon. If you cook with caramel at all, it is worth the extra cost, you just open the bag and measure, no more cellophane wrappers all over the kitchen.
Again, these cookies are sturdy because of the oatmeal and will keep their shape and their flavor for several days, and no nuts in case someone has allergies. These are another good option for shipping, unless you are sending them to the tropics where the caramel might get a little gooey. I think your friends will like them, so far mine have given these pretty high marks.

I can’t find the caramel bits in Greensboro, I had to order mine. Let me know if you find them anywhere.
