‘Tis the season for cookies! One of my favorite things about the holiday season is baking fresh cookies in my kitchen. Every year I make a few batches of my family favorites that I make year after year. I also add one or two new cookies to the mix. This year I added Cranberry Butter Cookies with Lemon Glaze. These cookies will be baked in my kitchen for years to come!

I love these Cranberry Butter Cookies with Lemon Glaze because they are a fun combination of sweet tart flavor. A delectable little butter cookie filled with dried cranberries is dipped into lemon glaze made with fresh lemon juice and zest. The combination of flavors will tempt your taste buds. Your first bite may include the subtle sweet flavor of the butter cookies and the next bite may yield a fresh tart flavor from the lemons. 

Whether you are heading to a holiday party or a cookie swap, add these cookies to your holiday baking list. The cookies also store and travel well. I have shipped them to family and friends in any closed container. Make sure that they are at room temperature or lower when shipping to ensure that the glaze holds up well.
