FROSTED CRANBERRY DROP COOKIES
I started making these treats after tasting a batch my friend whipped up. I immediately requested the drop cookie recipe and have been baking them by the dozens ever since. The icing is an ideal complement to the tart berries in the cookies. -Shirley Kidd, New London, Minnesota
