These are very tasty cookies. I didn’t have cranberries so I added cinnamon chips and a little bit of orange zest. They disappeared quickly. I do agree that they are a bit cakey, but that didn’t seem to stop people from taking seconds.

These are so good! I’ve made them twice now and have added chocolate chips instead of the cherries. Make these tonight, you won’t be sorry.
