We first enjoyed these Cranberry Chocolate Chip cookies at a bed & breakfast in Sandlake Oregon. All their guests are greeted with this delicious treat.
What is a Sandlake Cookie?
This recipe was one of the very first, if not the first, cookie recipe I ever posted on the blog. The recipe is from a lovely, quaint bed and breakfast in Sandlake, Oregon near the Oregon Coast that my husband and I stayed at years ago. They greet all their guests with these delicious cookies and even give you a mini cookbook with some of their favorite recipes. The B & B calls these Cranberry Chocolate Chip Cookies Sandlake Cookies after the name of their inn and town.l
Chocolate Cranberry Cookies
These Cranberry Chocolate Chip Cookies may look like an average chocolate chip cookie but they are not! In addition to chocolate chips there are dried cranberries these cookies are lightly flavored with cinnamon and ginger. You still know you are eating a chocolate chip cookie but the addition of the spice adds for a nice surprise and a lovely taste.
How to Make Cranberry Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Cream sugar and butter together until it is light and fluffy.
- Add in eggs and vanilla.
- Mix in dry ingredients.
- Roll golf ball size balls of dough in powdered sugar.
- Bake at 375 F for 10 minutes.
It is a fun twist on a traditional cookie and would make the perfect addition to your holiday baking. The spice and cranberries in the cookie give it amazing flavor.

Hi Leigh Anne, Thanks so much for posting this. My husband and I stayed their years ago and got the cookbook too. My family loves these. We recently had to move and all of my cookbooks are packed away and my visiting daughter wanted me to make them, so luckily I found your recipe.
Happy Holidays.

I just stumbled onto your blog while searching for cookie recipes. I stopped my search as soon as I saw your recipe for ‘Sandlake cookies’. Sandlake? What a small world. We ride quads at Sandlake. 😉 I’m going to have to look for the Inn that you stayed at, sounds nice. 🙂
Merry Christmas!

I made these yesterday, and we loved them! My husband wanted me to make them with White chocolate chips, and I did, and they were sooo yummy! (I still want to try them with regular chips, too!)
