OLD ENGLISH LEMON-CRANBERRY COOKIES
Fall cuisine is typically marked by what many consider to be more traditional and even somewhat austere flavors. Fall cuisine usually boasts 'Old World' flavors such as cloves, walnuts, and cranberries. These are flavors one might have envisioned a puritan family enjoying fresh off the Mayflower. At first bite, the robust 'kick' and bold expression of these little treats will be sure to impress and delight, and possibly even allow one to reminisce on the joys of autumn, from the fading leaves to the memories of a Thanksgiving past.

Tips:
- Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor and texture. - If you don't have fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries. Just thaw them before using. - Be sure to drain the cranberries well before adding them to the dough. - Don't overmix the dough. Overmixed dough will make tough cookies. - Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape. - Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaked cookies will be dry and crumbly. - Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before storing them.Conclusion:
