Since I was making these for the first time, I decided to halve the recipe. I made some changes and omitted the frosting. I had an orange at home but did not want to juice it so I used orange essence instead. This is what I did - 1 cup + 2 tablespoons all purpose flour mixed with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp baking powder. I creamed 1 stick of butter with 3/4 cup brown sugar. Added 1 egg, zest of 1 orange and 1/2 tsp orange essence. Added the flour+salt+baking soda. And then I added 1 cup of dried cranberries + 1/2 cup of slivered almonds mixed in with 1 tbls of flour. Refregerated this dough for 30 minutes. Baked at 350 for 12 minutes. And a new cookie tradition is born. This is my new favorite cookie. Very yummy, very classy.
