Time 50m

Yield 48

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter
¾ cup white sugar
¾ cup brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs
1 cup chopped pecans
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup sweetened dried cranberries (such as Ocean Spray® Craisins®)
1 ½ cups confectioners' sugar
½ cup freshly squeezed orange juice
1 orange, zested
1 tablespoon butter

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Sift the flour, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl.
  • In a large bowl, beat together the butter, white and brown sugars, and vanilla extract with an electric mixer until the mixture is creamy and well blended. Beat in eggs, one at a time, and then gradually beat in the flour just until the mixture makes a soft dough. Stir in the pecans, rolled oats, and cranberries, and drop by heaping spoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the cookies are set and the edges are slightly brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Let the cookies cool for 1 minute on baking sheets before removing to wire racks to finish cooling. Glaze cookies while still a little warm.
  • Place the confectioners' sugar and orange juice in a microwave-safe bowl, and stir to dissolve the sugar. Stir in the orange zest and butter, and microwave on medium power until the butter melts and the mixture is warm, about 30 seconds. Stir the warm glaze until smooth, and drizzle over cookies.

Tips:

  • Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before mixing, especially the butter. This will allow the ingredients to blend smoothly and evenly.
  • Do not overmix the cookie dough. Overmixing can result in tough, dry cookies. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the cookie dough before baking. Chilling helps the dough firm up and prevents the cookies from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Line the baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. This will prevent the cookies from sticking and make them easier to remove from the sheets.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. The edges should be golden brown and the centers should be slightly soft. Overbaking will result in dry, crumbly cookies.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before glazing them. This will allow the glaze to set properly.

Conclusion:

These Cranberry Pecan Cookies with Orange Glaze are a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their chewy texture, sweet and tangy flavor, and beautiful appearance, these cookies are sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give these cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
