Yield Makes about 7 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup dried cranberries
3/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly grated orange zest
1/2 preparedBasic Butter Cookie Dough at room temperature
about 1/2 cup sugar

Steps:

  • In a bowl soak cranberries in warm water to cover 15 minutes. Drain cranberries well and chop fine.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • In bowl of a standing electric mixer beat cranberries, oats, and zest into basic dough until just combined well. Form dough into 1-inch balls and roll balls in sugar to coat. Arrange balls 2 inches apart on baking sheets and flatten to 2-inch rounds with bottom of a glass wrapped in wax paper to prevent sticking.
  • Bake cookies in batches in middle of oven until pale golden, about 12 minutes, and cool on racks. Cookies may be stored between layers of wax paper in airtight containers up to 6 weeks frozen.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor. If you only have frozen cranberries, thaw them completely before using.
  • Make sure the butter is softened before you start mixing the cookie dough. This will help the cookies to be light and fluffy.
  • Don't overmix the cookie dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the cookie dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies to hold their shape.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before storing them.
