Cranberry Orange Cookies

Описание: So the title of this video is "(Holy late) Orange Cranberry Cookies" because I actually made this before Christmas but finally got to editing it now! Oh well, better late than never!

This was one of the new cookies I put in my Christmas cookie box this year and it was a favorite. I will definitely be making these again soon.

Cranberry Orange Cookies
Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 teaspoon orange zest
2 1/2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups dried cranberries*
Icing:
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
3 tablespoons orange juice
1/2 teaspoon orange zest

*I made a second batch of these cookies and did not chop up the cranberries and they turned out just fine.

Directions:
Mix butter and sugars together.
Add egg, orange juice and orange zest and mix well again.
In a medium bowl combine flour, salt and baking soda.
Add slowly to the mixture until well blended.
Add cranberries and mix by hand.
Drop by tablespoon full onto cookie sheets.
Bake at 350ºF for 8 - 10 minutes.
Put wax paper under your cooling racks. (This makes for easier clean up of the drizzled icing.)
Let cookies stand for 2 minutes on cookie sheet then remove to cooling racks.

While cookies are cooling, make your icing.

In a medium bowl, stir together the powdered sugar, orange juice and orange zest until well mixed.
Drizzle this over the cookies.
Let icing harden. You can put them in the freezer to make the icing harden faster.

Store in an airtight container - unless you eat them all first! (They really are that good!)

Enjoy!
