"Here is a very good filled cookies for all you cranberry lovers! I really love this little berry. It makes Holidays extra nice and it can also make your cookies extra yummy too. This recipe comes from my favorite cook book on Cranberries called "Wisconsin Cranberry Growers FAvorite Recipes". Recipe is from Sylvia Delong, A special Thanks to Sylvia for a wonderful recipe! The amount of cookies will depend on how big you make your cut outs. Enjoy!"

Lately I've been making so many recipes calling for fresh/frozen cranberries that my stash is rapidly dwindling, so when this recipe came to my attention, well... The cookies from this recipe are VERY tasty & easy-to-make, & as a result, the recipe is well worth making again!

I love to cook. I also love to garden, both vegetables and flowers are my passion. I enjoy the great out doors, also, looking for new and interesting recipes to make for my family. Baking in the cooler fall and winter months fills the home with such wonderful aromas, plus living in the Great Lakes State, sometimes you do not see the sun for weeks. So filling the home with inviting aromas with fresh baked breads, cakes, cookies or hearty stews and soups is a must to lift the spirits! Canning is another one of my passions. I love the taste of "Good " home canned produce, expecially when it comes out of my garden! The produce truly is a gift From God, and I am very thankful for it! Hobbies: I live on a mini farm, raising Chickens and turkeys. I also have 5 German Shorthaired Pointer dogs that take up a lot of my time. I also enjoy playing cards and get togethes with family and friends. Health: I'm always looking and researching on what things makes us healthy. I really enjoying researching on line different new products for good health. Somethings I order, just don't pan out, while other, have really helped my health improve. I always try to go the natural way. I would love to some day buy all organic cotton bedding, cloths, but that can be very expensive. <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/200_artistrichardneuman-art-prints_.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"> <a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w115/bugh8er/food%20and%20swaps/1586527_82d4ffc3-m3_1236405280.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"> <img src="http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w115/bugh8er/4th%20of%20July/4811_126919.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <a href=http://www.glitter-graphics.com title='Myspace Graphics'><img src=http://dl8.glitter-graphics.net/pub/157/157178bw81qvo6oz.gif width=349 height=357 alt='myspace layouts, myspace codes, glitter graphics' border=0></a> My Summer gardens! <embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" src="http://w9.photobucket.com/pbwidget.swf?pbwurl=http://w9.photobucket.com/albums/a63/MichAgain/1168962640.pbw" height="360" width="480"></embed><a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://pic.photobucket.com/getyourown.gif" style="border-width: 0;" vspace="1"></a>
