Yield 48 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup butter, at room temperature (1-1/2 sticks)
1 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
orange zest, grated (zest of 1 orange)
1/2 cup dried sweetened cranberries
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line cookie sheets with parchment or silpat.
  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • In a separate large bowl, cream butter and sugar together with an electric mixer until light in color. Beat in egg and orange zest. Add flour mixture a little at a time with mixer on low speed, stirring until just combine. Fold in cranberries and chocolate chips.
  • Drop dough by rounded tablespoons onto prepared cookie sheets. Bake 9-12 minutes in preheated oven or until the edges of the cookies are just slightly golden. Cool for 3-4 minutes on pan, then transfer to a baking rack and cool completely.
  • Note: Dark chocolate chips may be used in this recipe. Adding coconut is an option as is adding nuts.
