These are my favorite (non-chocolate) cookies. They are soft, chewy, and delicious. My family has been making them for the holidays for years. I have no idea where the recipe came from, but I'm glad I have it!

Time 40m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup white sugar
¾ cup firmly packed brown sugar
½ cup butter, softened
¼ cup milk
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 egg
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon baking soda
2 ½ cups cranberries, halved
1 cup chopped walnuts
¼ cup confectioners' sugar for dusting, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
  • Cream white sugar, brown sugar, and butter together in a large mixing bowl. Beat milk, orange juice, and egg into the creamed mixture.
  • Sift flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and baking soda together in a separate bowl; blend into the wet ingredients in the mixing bowl to form a cookie dough. Stir cranberries and walnuts into the dough.
  • Drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet by the teaspoonful.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are golden, 10 to 15 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool completely. Sprinkle confectioners' sugar over the cookies to serve.
