Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
3 tablespoons milk
2 large eggs
1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature

In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the butter with both sugars, and beat on medium speed until light and fluffy.

CRANBERRY-GINGER LINZER TORTE COOKIES



Cranberry-Ginger Linzer Torte Cookies image

This is one of my favorite cookies for a few different reasons. It's kind of a sandy cookie, so you get that snap. Its warming spices play very nicely with the cranberry-ginger jam. You can use that jam in other places, even as cranberry sauce. You have that acidity and that little bit of sour as well as sweet. And they're just as good right out of the freezer. It's a great cookie with the holidays for exchanges or just to have after dinner. Can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Categories     Cranberry Cookies

Time 2h25m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 (12 ounce) package fresh cranberries
2 cups white sugar
1 medium orange, zested
½ cup fresh orange juice
¼ cup water
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger root
1 pinch salt
3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup confectioners' sugar, or as needed

Steps:

  • Combine cranberries, sugar, orange zest, orange juice, water, ginger, and salt for filling in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Lower heat and simmer, stirring frequently, until cranberries burst. Continue cooking, mashing fruit a bit with the back of a spoon, until thick as jam, about 30 minutes. Remove from heat to cool completely. Can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  • Sift flour, ginger, cinnamon, and salt for cookies together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • Mix butter and white sugar together in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment until just combined. Add the vanilla. Gradually add in flour mixture on low speed just until the dough starts to come together. Dump onto a piece of plastic wrap and flatten into a disk. Wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
  • Roll the dough ¼-inch thick and cut into 2-inch rounds with a plain or fluted cutter. With 1/2 of the rounds, cut a hole from the middle of each round into a desired shape. Place all cookies on a parchment-lined baking sheet and chill for 15 minutes.
  • While cookies chill, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the edges just begin to brown or the cookies are crisp, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven; let cookies cool for 1 minute on the pan, then remove to a wire rack and allow to cool completely, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • When the cookies have cooled, place 1 teaspoon of filling on the flat side of each whole cookie, spreading it out to the edges with the back of the spoon. Dust the top of the cut-out cookies with confectioners' sugar. Place the sugared tops on the filled bottoms.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor. Frozen cranberries can be used, but they will not have the same tartness and flavor as fresh cranberries.
  • Chop the cranberries finely before adding them to the cookie dough. This will help them to distribute evenly throughout the cookies and prevent them from clumping together.
  • Do not overmix the cookie dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the cookie dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will help the cookies to develop a crispy exterior and a chewy interior.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will help them to set and firm up.

Conclusion:

These cranberry-ginger oatmeal cookies are a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for the holiday season. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you are looking for a snack, a dessert, or a gift, these cookies are sure to please.
