Ingredients: 

• 2 sticks salted butter at room temperature
• ½ cup sugar
• 2 tablespoon milk or cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 2½ cups flour
• ½ cup chopped pecans
• ¾ cup chopped dried cranberries
• ¼ cup extra sugar

Directions:

1. Cream butter and sugar til fluffy. Add milk and vanilla - mix. Add flour and salt - mix well. Add cranberries and pecans.
    
2. Roll into 2 logs about 8 x 1½". Wrap and chill for 2 hours in the fridge. I've also put them in the freezer for 30-60 minutes and this works the same way. You just want it to be firm enough to cut without misshaping the round cookie.
    
3. Slice cookies about ¼" thick. Roll edges of cookie in sugar.
    
4. Place on lightly greased cookie sheets, or Silpats. Bake at 375 for 10-15 minutes. Be-careful not to "overbake", it will make the cookies hard like a stone. Enjoy!

Note: Makes 35-40 cookies
