Eggless Orange Cranberry Cookies Recipe with step by step pictures.

I haven’t baked much with orange and a while back there were quite a few recipes with orange in them. Orange juice, orange rind or orange essence seemed to be the star of those bakes.

Though I had oranges in the fruit basket and could have easily used fresh OJ and the rind, I opted to use the essence! Yes sometimes, I am hard to judge!

So with the Eggless Basic Cookie dough in hand, the task seemed like a breeze. The cranberries that I have been rationing in bakes came into play here and the cookies turned out so flavorsome!
