INGREDIENTS

  • Dry Ingredients

    • 🌾 2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 🥄 ¼ teaspoon baking powder
    • 🧂 ⅛ teaspoon salt

  • Wet Ingredients

    • 🧈 1 cup butter, softened
    • 🍬 ¾ cup confectioners' sugar
    • 🌸 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    • 🌰 ½ teaspoon almond extract
    • 🍊 1 tablespoon grated orange zest, or more to taste

  • Mix-ins

    • 🍇 2 cups sweetened dried cranberries, chopped

STEPS

1

Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl; set aside.

2

Beat the butter and confectioners' sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Stir in the vanilla and almond extracts and orange zest.

3

Mix in the flour mixture until just incorporated. Fold in the cranberries, mixing just enough to evenly combine.

4

Divide the dough into 2 equal portions, then roll into logs about 7 inches long. Wrap each log in wax paper or plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.

5

Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Remove wax paper, and cut the cookie dough into 1/2-inch slices.

6

Arrange the slices on a baking sheet about 1 inch apart.

7

Bake in the preheated oven until firm but not browned, about 10 minutes.
