These are very Special Cookies. I will definitely include them on my Holiday Baking List. The three additions...Cranberries, Yogurt Chips, and Macadamia Nuts make them a Triple Threat. They are very pretty and have a firm but not hard texture. One cookie is very satisfying, as they are a rich and sweet thing. I hope you will include these on your Special List too!
