Soft & Chewy Cranberry Walnut Cookies Recipe
Ingredients
- ½ cup butter
- ¾ cup sugar
- zest of 1 medium to large tangerine
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 1½ cups AP flour
- Approximately ½ cup cranberries
- ¼ cup walnuts
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Using a stand mixer, beat together the butter, sugar, tangerine zest, vanilla, baking powder, and salt.
- Beat in the egg. The mixture may look slightly curdled which is fine. Add the flour and dried cranberries and nuts, stirring until well combined.
- Drop the dough by heaping teaspoons onto the baking sheets. Using the flat bottom of a glass dipped in sugar or a spoon, flatten each cookie slightly.
- Bake the cookies for 7-10 minutes, or until theyâre barely set and a light golden brown around the edges. Make sure not to over bake your cookies or they will not be soft and chewy once they are cool.
- Remove cookies from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
