Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 cup softened butter

3/4 cup granulated sugar

3/4 cup brown sugar

2 eggs

grated zest of 1 orange

3 cups quick oats

1 bag of dark chocolate covered cranberries (I really like the ones made by Brookside)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350° F.

Beat butter, sugar, brown sugar, eggs and orange zest in large bowl, until light and fluffy.

Combine flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Gradually beat flour mixture into butter mixture. Stir in oats and dark chocolate covered cranberries.

Roll into small balls and place on a parchment covered baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Cool on baking sheets for 1 - 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.
