Receta Cranberry Pepita Cookies
Welcome back! Today Cynthia, our hostess from Feeding Big, chose a Thanksgiving theme for us to #Fillthecookiejar.
I thought long and hard about this. I wanted to make another biscotti using cranberries but instead I decided to make Cranberry Pepita Cookies.
These slightly sweet and tart Cranberry Pepita Cookies are a perfect combination and can be an excellent on-the-go snack..

I gotta be honest with you. I usually don’t have the patience to wait for cookie dough to chill in the fridge for any length of time. But I got lucky. I started these cookies early on Sunday morning. Day light savings time. I had an extra hour since I still woke up early. We go my dog clock in our house.
I popped the dough in the fridge and then proceeded with the rest of my day. By early afternoon, the dough was chilled enough and all I had to do was pop them in the oven.
Now you can enjoy viewing several other Thanksgiving Themed cookies to fill your cookie jar.
