Provided by By Betty Crocker Kitchens

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 14

Reynolds™ Parchment Paper
3/4 cup butter or margarine, softened

2 teaspoons grated orange peel
2 cups quick-cooking oats

1 cup sweetened dried cranberries
1 cup powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
3 to 4 teaspoons orange juice

Tips:

  • Use a combination of oats. This recipe calls for both old-fashioned oats and quick-cooking oats. The old-fashioned oats provide a chewy texture, while the quick-cooking oats help to bind the cookies together.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing can make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough helps to firm it up and makes it easier to roll out. It also helps to prevent the cookies from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies until they are golden brown. The cookies should be firm to the touch, but not hard. Insert a toothpick into the center of a cookie; it should come out clean when the cookie is done.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. The cookies will continue to firm up as they cool. If you store them before they are completely cool, they may become too soft and crumbly.

Conclusion:

These cranberry orange oat cookies are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for the holiday season. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Add in your favorite dried fruits, nuts, or spices to create a unique and flavorful cookie that everyone will love.
