I think I’ve made about 100 cookie recipes throughout this past year. I can’t stop! There’s so many delicious flavor combinations that belong in cookie form!
Cranberry and orange for example. SO DELICIOUS TOGETHER!
The tartness of cranberries are perfectly tamed when paired with the zest of a sweet, citrus orange. If you don’t believe me, try these cookies!
They’re deliciously thick, chewy, bursting with orange flavor and filled with chewy bites of dried cranberries! The dried cranberries give them a classic oatmeal raisin feel, but they’re obviously way better.
Both the texture and flavors of these cookies are so irresistible, it’s impossible to only have one!
Do yourself a favor and whip these cookies up! Then, do me a favor and snap a photo and tag @bunnysbite so I can see your results!!!
