Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cup salted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
- 2 1/2 cups flour
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons orange zest
- 1 cup dried cranberries finely chopped
- 2 ounces white chocolate melted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Prepare baking sheets with silicone baking mats or parchment paper.
- Cream together the butter and sugar. Mix in the almond extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and cornstarch. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and blend until incorporated. Mix in the orange zest and dried cranberries.
- Onto a well-floured surface, roll the dough out to about a ¼ inch thick. Cut out the cookies with a 2.5 inch cookie cutter.
- Place the cookies on cookie sheets lined with parchment paper. These cookies can spread a bit when baking so leave some space between each one on the cookie sheet.
- Bake the cookies at 325 degrees for 12 minutes, or until the edges just barely start to turn golden.
- When the cookies have cooled completely, use a fork to drizzle the white chocolate over them.
