Tips:
- Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor and texture.
- If you don't have a medium skillet, you can use a large skillet and spread the batter out thinner. This will result in a crispier cookie.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will result in a tough cookie.
- Be patient when cooking the cookies. They take a little longer to cook than regular cookies, but they're worth the wait.
- Serve the cookies warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
