Ingredients:
1 cup vegetable shortening
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups OCEAN SPRAY® Fresh or Frozen Cranberries, coarsely chopped
1 1/3 cups (8 oz.) NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels
1 1/4 cups chopped nuts
Directions:
PREHEAT oven to 350° F. Grease baking sheets.
COMBINE flour, baking powder and salt in medium bowl. Beat vegetable shortening and sugar in large mixer bowl until light and fluffy. Add vanilla extract and egg; mix well. Gradually beat in flour mixture until a soft mixture forms. Stir in cranberries. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto prepared baking sheets.
BAKE for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Let stand for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.
MELT morsels in uncovered, microwave-safe bowl on HIGH (100%) power for 1 minute; STIR. Morsels may retain some of their original shape. If necessary, microwave at additional 10- to 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Dip half of each cookie into melted chocolate and then into nuts. Allow chocolate to dry completely.
