Northland Cranberry Frosted Cookies

In an effort to use up all the cranberries my friend gave me when her family moved, I made these to enjoy.

Ingredients:
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
3 cups flour
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
2 1/1 cups Northland Fresh Cranberries cut in half*

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In medium bowl sift together dry ingredients. In another bowl, cream together butter sugars, egg, and milk. Incorporate dry ingredients. Stir in fresh Northland cranberries just until mixed. Bake on cookie sheet that has been sprayed with food release spray. Check in 7-10 minutes. Cookies should be slightly brown on edges. Do not overbake. Cool and add frosting.

Northland Fresh Cranberries may be stored in your freezer for up to one year for year round enjoyment!

Brown butter frosting:

Ingredients
1/2 cup butter
1 tsp. vanilla
3 tbsp. Northland 100% Juice Traditional Cranberry Blend
2 cups powdered sugar

heat butter in skillet on medium high heat and allow to turn a golden brown (do not overbrown). Mix together with frosting ingredients and spread onto cooled cookies.

Makes 36 cookies.

Well, these were good, but if you use frozen cranberries cook them a little bit longer that 10 minutes! They were really soft and gooey when I only cooked them for 10 minutes. Other than that, YYYUUUMMM!!!!!!!! Little Chubb kept trying to sneak them.

I didn't have cranberry juice, so I added some dried chopped cranberries to the frosting.
