Cranberry Sugar Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Heat sugar and water in a small saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir until the sugar has dissolved, about 3 minutes. Remove syrup from heat and allow to cool until lukewarm. Add cranberries to syrup and carefully stir to coat. Cover and refrigerate 8 hours to overnight.
• Sprinkle a baking sheet with sugar and line a second baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Drain cranberries well and spread out onto the sugar-covered baking sheet. Roll in the sugar and transfer cranberries to the parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer. Allow to dry for 3 hours.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees.
• In large bowl, combine quick bread mix and butter; mix well. Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
• Flatten balls to 1/8-inch thickness with bottom of glass dipped in sugar.
• Bake at 350 degrees for nine to 11 minutes or until golden brown. Watch carefully as these burn easily due to the amount of butter.
• Cool 2 minutes; remove from cookie sheets and continue cooling on wire rack.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease two baking sheets. Combine flour and baking soda in a bowl.
• Beat the butter, white sugar, brown sugar, and instant pudding with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Beat the first egg into the butter until completely blended, then beat in the vanilla with the last egg. Mix in the flour mixture until just incorporated. Fold in the white chocolate chips and cranberries; mixing just enough to evenly combine. Drop spoonfuls of the dough 2 inches apart onto prepared baking sheets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges of the cookies become golden brown, 9 to 12 minutes. Cool in the baking sheet for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, cream together the butter, white sugar and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg until well blended. Mix in 1 teaspoon orange zest and 2 tablespoons orange juice. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt; stir into the orange mixture. Mix in cranberries and if using, walnuts, until evenly distributed. Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets. Cookies should be spaced at least 2 inches apart.
• Bake for 12 to 14 minutes in the preheated oven, until the edges are golden. Remove from cookie sheets to cool on wire racks.
• In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 teaspoon orange zest, 3 tablespoons orange juice and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Spread over the tops of cooled cookies. Let stand until set.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F Lightly grease cookie sheets. Beat sugar and butter in large bowl until light and fluffy. Add eggs and sour cream; beat until creamy.
• Stir together flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves in small bowl; gradually add to sugar mixture, beating until well mixed. Stir in cranberries and raisins. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto cookie sheets. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool.
• Makes about 5 dozen cookies.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Mix together flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
• Cream together butter and 1 cup white sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add in egg yolks and mix until thoroughly combined. Mix in lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until incorporated. Pour in half of the flour mixture and mix until just combined. Add in remaining flour mixture and mix until just combined (dough will be thick). Fold in cranberries.
• Place remaining 1/3 cup white sugar in a shallow bowl or pie pan. Roll dough into tablespoon-sized balls, and then roll in sugar to coat. Place dough balls 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the tops begin to crackle and bottoms are just set, 10 to 12 minutes. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 to 7 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
