Pistachio Cranberry Cookies
One of our favorite Christmas treats are Pistachio Cranberry Cookies. This is a really easy recipe to make and just unique enough combination of ingredients that it’s a special crowd pleaser.
What makes these cookies so yummy and very moist is the addition of pistachio pudding. The cranberries give the cookies sweet chewy goodness.

What a great recipe! I’ll have to give it a try. We have lots of cookie baking to do in the next few weeks and a big party here next weekend. I have lots to prepare for this Christmas. Thanks so much for sharing it.

If we normally make this recipe with chocolate chips instead of cranberries, but thought the cranberries went nice with the green for a Christmas look. Also a powdered sugar and milk frosting is good on these.
Can’t wait to give it a try. My daughters and I plan to bake all next week and our men plan to help taste test for us. :) Happy baking.
