1/4 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 package (5 ounces) dried cranberries |
1 cup chopped cashews |
glaze: |
1 cup confectioners' sugar |
2 tablespoons orange juice |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, cream butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the sour cream, egg and vanilla. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well. Stir in cranberries and cashews.
2. Drop by tablespoonfuls 2 in. apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake 375° for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool. Combine the glaze ingredients; drizzle over cookies. Yield: 5 dozen.
