Strawberry Shortcake Cookies

Yet another great pinterest recipe. I really need to stop pinning desserts! I found the strawberry craisins at Winco (which by the way is an awesome store and I wish I lived closer to it).

3/4 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon 100% pure vanilla

1 cup dried strawberry flavored craisins
1/2 cup dried cranberries

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a standing mixer, beat Crisco, butter and sugars until light and fluffy for approx. 10 minutes. Beat in eggs and vanilla. In a medium sized bowl combine flour and baking soda; whisk. Slowly add flour mixture to creamed mixture. Next, stir in white choc chips, dried strawberry craisins and dried cranberries. Shape cookie dough into approx 1 inch balls. Place 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 12 minutes or until the edges are slightly brown. Remove cookies from oven and let set on baking sheet for approx. 1-2 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
