Make It Happen
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 325°F. Break and place cookie dough cubes 2” apart on a greased baking sheet.
Step 2
Bake 13-17 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from cookie sheets and transfer to cooling racks. Let cool completely.
Step 3
While the cookies are cooling, place dried cranberries into a small bowl. Sprinkle sugar over them until coated. Set aside.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, add powdered sugar, vanilla, and orange juice. Mix until smooth. If icing is too thick, thin it out by adding more orange juice.
Step 5
Spread the icing over the cooled cookies. Finally, sprinkle on the sugared cranberries.
Step 6
Once the icing has dried, store cookies in an airtight container. Put them in a single layer to avoid squishing the icing or add parchment paper between multiple layers.
