Ingredients

1 cup shortening

1 cup sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 egg

2 cups flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 cups Fresh or Frozen Cranberries, coarsely chopped

1 1/3 cups semi-sweet chocolate bits, melted

1 1/4 cups chopped nuts

Directions

Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease cookie sheets.

Using an electric mixer, beat shortening and sugar together in a medium mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and egg; mix well.

Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a separate mixing bowl. Add to shortening mixture, mixing until a soft dough forms. Stir in cranberries.

IMMEDIATELY drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls onto cookie sheets. Bake for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Transfer cookies to a wire rack; cool completely.

Dip half of each cookie into melted chocolate and then in nuts. Allow chocolate to dry completely.

Makes about 3 dozen.
