Ingredients
- 1/4 cup butter (room temp)
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 tablespoon finely grated orange peel
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- 3/4 cup chopped cranberries (fresh or frozen)
Directions
Grease a large cookie sheet. In a medium sized mixing bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, egg, vanilla, orange zest and salt until the mixture is light and fluffy. Sift the flour and baking soda and stir them into the creamed mixture until they are thoroughly blended. Fold in the walnuts and cranberries. Drop rounded teaspoonfuls on the prepared sheet, leaving about 2" between each spoonful. Bake 10 to 12 minutes, until they are golden. Transfer the cookies to a rack and cool thoroughly. Store them in an airtight container. Makes about 4 dozen cookies.
