Ingredients:

Serving

5 egg whites
1 cup turbinado (washed raw ) sugar
1-1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp salt
1-1/4 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
2/3 cup butter, softened
2 tbsp plus 1-1/2 tsp walnut or canola oil
1-2/3 cups chopped walnuts, toasted
cranberry filling:
4 tangerines
1 package (12 oz) fresh or frozen cranberries
1/2 cup turbinado (washed raw ) sugar
thyme cream:
1 carton (8 oz) mascarpone cheese
1 cup (8 oz) plain yogurt
1/3 cup honey
1/2 tsp minced fresh thyme
additional chopped toasted walnuts

Directions:

In a small bowl, beat the egg whites, sugar, vanilla and salt until foamy. Gradually beat in flour. Beat in butter and oil. Fold in walnuts.
With a pencil, draw five 3-in. circles on a sheet of parchment paper. Place paper, pencil mark down, on a baking sheet. Spread a heaping tablespoonful of batter over each circle. Bake at 400° for 8-10 minutes or until edges begin to brown. Remove to wire racks to cool completely. Repeat with remaining batter, making 30 cookies.
Using a vegetable peeler, remove peel from one tangerine. Peel and seed remaining tangerines and place in a food processor. Add the cranberries, sugar and tangerine peel. Cover and process until chopped. Transfer to a large saucepan. Cook over medium heat until thickened, about 10 minutes. Cool.
For thyme cream, beat the cheese, yogurt, honey and thyme until thickened. Place one cookie on a small plate. Spread with 1 tablespoon cranberry filling and 1 tablespoon thyme cream. Repeat layers twice. Repeat with remaining cookies, cranberry filling and thyme cream. Sprinkle with additional walnuts. Yield: 10 servings.
