These cranberry-walnut cookies have a bit of citrus flavor though the use of orange juice in the dough. Great alternative cookie for when you run out of chocolate chips.

Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
Step 2
Cream white sugar, brown sugar, and butter together in a large mixing bowl. Beat milk, orange juice, and egg into the creamed mixture.
Step 3
Sift flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and baking soda together in a separate bowl; blend into the wet ingredients in the mixing bowl to form a cookie dough. Stir cranberries and walnuts into the dough.
Step 4
Drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet by the teaspoonful.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are golden, 10 to 15 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool completely. Sprinkle confectioners' sugar over the cookies to serve.
