Frosted Cranberry Sugar Cookie Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 ¾ cups all purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 1 cup butter, room temperature
- 1 ½ cups sugar
- 1 egg, room temperature
- 1 tsp vanilla
For the frosting-
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- ½ tsp vanilla
- 2 tbsp milk
For cranberry topping-
- ½ cup dried cranberries, roughly chopped
- 4 tablespoons of sugar
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together all purpose flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Set aside.
- In another bowl, mix together butter and sugar 1-2 minutes, until light and fluffy.
- Add vanilla and egg, mix to combine.
- Slowly add dry ingredients to the wet, mixing until just combined.
- Roll the cookie dough into 1 inch balls and place onto the parchment paper.
- Bake 8-10 minutes, until the cookies are turning golden on the bottom.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk.
- After making your frosting add your chopped cranberries and tablespoons of sugar together so that the cranberries are coated.
- Once the cookies have cooled, spoon a small amount of the frosting onto your cookie, then top with a few pieces of chopped sugared cranberries.
- Allow cookies to sit so the frosting can harden. Enjoy, or store in the refrigerator.
