White Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

That title is false. It really should be White Chocolate Chip-Craisin-Coconut-Oatmeal Cookies. But like let's be real, if I want a cookie I am not going to ramble off that before digging in. 

I made these before but this time changed it up because we have an abundance of white chocolate chips, craisins and oatmeal. Not that its a bad thing.
