Hooty Creeks
1 cup butter2/3 cup brown sugar, packed
2/3 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup quick cooking oats
1 cup dried cranberries chopped
1 cup white chocolate chips
1 cup chopped pecans
Cream the sugars and butter in a bowl. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix until the eggs disappear. Next, add the flour, oats, baking soda, baking powder, and salt to the mixture. Mix until well blended. Stir in cranberries, chips, and pecans. The mixture will be stiff.
Using a one-inch cookie scoop, drop on a baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
Bake at 350 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes. I tend to bake for 9 1/2 minutes for a softer cookie. Cool on wire racks. Makes about 72 cookies.

Hi Joan,
thank you so much for joining my party. Your cookies look so delicious. Cranberries and white chocolate - just to hear it makes my mouth watering. I will try to make them. I wish you a very nice weekend and I am sure your guests love your cookies.
Greetings, Johanna
Good Morning Joan Sweetie...
Oh my gosh could I ever smell the cookies bakin this morning. Love that smell of home baked goodness. I can't thank you enough for the wonderful recipe. I will definitely be making some Hooty Creeks for the holidays. The kids and grands will love them. Good for them too. I love baking with cranberries, and ofcourse my folks have pecan trees so I always have bags of pecans in the freezer. Love the pecans in my cookies.
Hope you have a beautiful day sweetie, and sure wish I could be there for the open-house. I will be sending well wishes from Arizona to you though.
Many hugs and much love, Sherry
Your open house sounds like a great time! Wouldn't mind one of these and a cup of coffee right now:@)
These look delicious! I'll bet the sweetness of the chips with the tartness of the cranberries make for a delightful treat for your mouth.
I wish I was close enough to come to your open house! La
Oh wow, I can't wait to make these-what a fun name for a cookie!
I wish I could sample some of your White Chocolate Macadamia Cookies too!
Best wishes,
Natasha.

These look delicious, but I'd love to know how they got their name. It's a hoot. I hope you are having a great day. Blessings...Mary
