Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
From Joan's kitchen
¼ cup Butter or margarine
¾ cup Brown sugar
1 Large egg
1 teaspoon Vanilla
1 tablespoon Orange zest
Pinch salt
1½ cup Flour
½ teaspoon Baking soda
½ cup Chopped walnuts
¾ cup Chopped cranberries
Fresh or frozen

Directions

Beat butter, sugar, egg, vanilla, orange zest and salt until fluffy.

Stir in flour and baking soda. Fold in nuts and cranberries. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto greased cookie sheet, 2 inches apart. Bake 375 for 10 to 12 minutes or light golden. Remove from rack to cool.

Store airtight. Note: I have made these into apple cookies by substituting 1 small peeled and chopped apple for the cranberries.
