Trader Joe’s Cranberry Butter Cookies are made for us in France, and their simplicity belies a sophisticated culinary pedigree. The dough starts with wheat flour, sugar, and cultured butter, to which eggs, leavening, and a touch of salt are added to create the classically crumbly, shortbread cookie base. A hint of cinnamon is included for a subtly fragrant, but not overwhelmingly spiced flavor, and sweetened dried cranberries bring a touch of chewy texture and tartness to the party. That’s it! Brilliantly buttery and not overly sweet, these Cranberry Butter Cookies are a fantastic addition to a holiday cookie platter or cookie exchange, and an intriguing inclusion on a cheese plate and a glass of domething sparkly.
