Cranberry Oatmeal Cookies
My mom e-mailed me this cookie recipe just in time for Thanksgiving. I asked her to send me some of her favorite cookie recipes. I wanted to spice up my holiday repertoire. I usually stick to peanut butter kiss cookies and gingerbread men, but wanted to venture out this year. I decided to do a test batch for Thanksgiving. Cranberry and walnut seemed very Thanksgivingish to me. These cookies are nice and chewy. The secret is the honey. A happy surprise was that each cookie was only about 100 calories and 2 WW points!!! (As directed they are a bit small but still.) I think these will make a great addition to my holiday cookie tins. What is your favorite holiday cookie recipe? ***HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!!
