Tips:
- Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor. Frozen cranberries can also be used, but they should be thawed and drained before using.
- If you don't have a pastry blender, you can use two knives to cut the butter into the flour mixture.
- The dough will be sticky at first, but it will come together as you knead it. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time, until it is no longer sticky.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set, about 10-12 minutes. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Conclusion:
These cranberry snickerdoodle cookies are a delicious and festive holiday treat. They are soft and chewy, with a sweet and tangy flavor. The cookies are also easy to make, and they can be made ahead of time, making them perfect for busy holiday bakers.
