Makes: 9x13 pan

Active Time: 30 minutes

Total Time: 1 hours 20 minutes

From: Dutch Iris Inn, Granby Conn.

=Ingredients=
1 1/2 cups flour

1 1/2 cups sugar

1 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. salt

2 eggs

1/2 cup butter, melted and cooled

1/2 tsp. vanilla

1/4 tsp. orange oil or the zest of 1 small orange

2 cups fresh cranberries chopped

1 cup semi-sweet choc. chips

3/4 cup chopped nuts of your choice (optional)

=Directions=

== Step 1 ==
Position a rack in upper third of oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Grease baking sheets or line with parchment; set aside.
== Step 2 ==
In a medium heavy saucepan bring butter to boiling over medium heat (it will be foamy). Adjust heat so it bubbles gently. Cook, stirring the bottom frequently, until fragrant and golden, about 6 to 8 minutes. Watch carefully to avoid burning. Stir in chopped pecans (it's normal for mixture to foam up). Return to a gentle boil. Cook, watching carefully, for 1 to 2 minutes (if pecans begin to darken, immediately remove pan from heat). Transfer butter-pecan mixture to a large bowl. Cool about 15 minutes.
== Step 3 ==
Stir powdered sugar, brown sugar, 3 tablespoons half-and-half, vanilla, and salt into the cooled butter-pecan mixture until smoothly incorporated. Stir in flour until fully incorporated. If mixture is crumbly, work in additional half-and-half until it holds together, but is not wet. If mixture is wet, let stand for 5 to 10 minutes more.
== Step 4 ==
Divide dough into thirds. Divide each third into 12 equal balls. Roll each bowl in coarse sugar, if desired. Place balls about 2 1/2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets; press a pecan half firmly into each. if edges of the rounds crack, just push back together.
== Step 5 ==
Bake one baking sheet at a time for 10 to 13 minutes or until cookies are just beginning to brown. Rotate baking sheet from front to back about halfway through.
== Step 6 ==
Transfer baking sheet to a wire rack. Let cool 5 minutes to firm up. Using a wide spatula, transfer cookies to wire rack. Brush pecans on top with molasses or maple syrup, if desired. Cool completely.
