I've tried several different chocolate cranberry treat recipes and this one is by far the best. The treats are perfectly soft and chewy.

These treats were a little too dry for my taste. I think I will try adding some more butter next time.

I made these treats gluten-free by using gluten-free flour. They were just as good as the regular version.

I had a hard time finding dried cranberries, so I used raisins instead. The treats still turned out great!

These treats were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I will try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
