Cranberry
Chocolate Chip Cookies
A
while back, we had dried cranberries (or craisins) dipped in rich chocolate.
They were scrumptious. We set about to create the same flavors in a
chocolate chip cookie. We added some nuts to the recipe just for good
measure and ended up with a real treat that wasn’t quite so decadent.
This recipe belongs in your kitchen. These cookies are very good.
