How to Make Cranberry And Orange Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and ¼ teaspoon salt until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 2 large egg yolks, one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon baking powder.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Gently fold in 1 cup dried cranberries, 1 cup rolled oats, and the zest of 1 large orange.
  7. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  8. Gently flatten each ball with a fork.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
