Cranberry Orange Christmas Sugar Cookies
Courtesy of Vanessa FalsettiHave a holiday baking tradition with your family? Invite the goodness of Conestoga Farms into your kitchen this season with a brand new Cranberry Orange Christmas Sugar Cookie recipe from our friend Vanessa of @Josephineacreativelife.
Ingredients
- 3 cups of flour
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 ½ tsp
- 1 cup of butter softened (I use salted)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 medium fresh free range, Ontario-laid Conestoga Farms Egg
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1 tsp Fresh Orange Zest
- ½ cup of dried cranberries
- ¼ cup icing sugar for decorating
Instructions
- Pre-heat the over to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together dry ingredients – flour, salt and baking powder until well combined.
- Using a mixer, cream sugar and butter then add egg and vanilla, then mix in the orange zest and cranberries.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture slowly until it forms a dough. Once thoroughly combined, turn out the dough, forming it into a ball.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out your dough about ¼ inch thick and use Holiday cookie cutters to cut out your cookies (we used Christmas trees and stars). Place the cut-out cookies on your lined baking sheets, keep them spaced out.
- Bake for 15 minutes, or until firm and lightly browned on the bottom. Let cookies cool on the baking sheets for about 5min and then transfer them on to a cooling rack.
- Once the cookies have cooled, dust them with icing sugar.
- Enjoy !
