These things are always a hit around Christmas, they're beautiful, festive, and delicious! They are also an interesting twist on Christmas cookies. I don't know about you guys, but I find myself getting a little bored with the usual cookie routine, it's nice to have something a little different.
Ingredients(they're in the wrong order because I just copied and pasted from a table on google docs):
1 cup butter flavor crisco
2 ½ cups flour
¾ cup granulated sugar
1tsp baking soda
¾ cup light brown sugar
½ tsp salt
2 eggs
1 cup fresh cranberries
1tsp vanilla
⅔ cup macadamia nuts
2T milk
1 package white chocolate chips
Method:
-Preheat Oven to 375°
-Rinse, dry, and pick through cranberries(they should be hard, bouncy, and sound hollow)
-Check nuts for discolored ones and chop nuts, and berries.
-Place nuts and berries in a bowl and sprinkle with some flour, set aside.
-Combine crisco and sugars in a large bowl.
-Once mixture is light and fluffy, add eggs and vanilla.
-In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, and salt
-Alternate adding milk and flour to sugar mixture, mix well after each addition.
-Fold in nuts, berries, and chips
-Drop cookies onto baking sheet lined with parchment paper
-Bake 8-10 minutes(cookies will appear moist, don’t over bake if you want chewy cookies)
I honestly prefer them with less white chocolate... I'm not really a fan of the stuff. I don't think it should be left out though, and she has told me milk chocolate is NOT an okay substitute in this case.
I hope everyone enjoys this recipe as much as we do, merry Christmas!!
bon appetit
