Cranberry Gingerbread Cookies

I thought this was pretty good, I used the Betty Crocker Gingerbread mix and made the soft version. I couldn't really taste the cranberries and I even added extra cranberries to this. I added 1/2 cup chopped pecans and I think I would add more next time and maybe some chopped crystalized ginger would be good. Overall pretty simple to make and not bad.

What is the point of rating a box recipe? It is only as good as the box mix can be. This is really a tip and not a recipe. Was excited to see the name of the cookie, until I looked at the recipe-potential in name mainly for an idea with a real recipe.

I bought a Trader Joes Gingerbread mix and didn t realize I had to follow the cookie ingredient instructions till it was too late. Maybe the directions should say to follow the cookie, not cake ingredients. Now I have a gingerbread cake that I made and it is quite good at that but not the cookies I was hoping for!
