cookies

My bestie, Becca, over at Beck-a-Boo crafts posted a nummy cookie recipe on her blog. We went to her house to play games and sampled some of these cookies fresh-out-of-the-oven. The next day I was at the store picking up the needed ingredients to made a whole batch for myself. Seriously, go make them right now. 

 Orange-Craisin Oatmeal Cookies

3/4 c. shortening

1 c. brown sugar

1/2 c. granulated sugar

1 egg

1/4 c. water

1 tsp. vanilla

Zest of one medium sized orange (about 1 Tbs.)

1 c. flour

1 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. cinnamon

1/2 tsp. nutmeg

3 c. oats

1 c. white chocolate chips
1 c. dried cranberries

Cream the shortening and sugars. Add the egg, water, vanilla and orange zest. In a separate bowl sift the flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and nutmeg together. Add the flour mix. Add the oats, and mix just until combined. Stir in the white chocolate chips and dried cranberries.

Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes.
