Notes
- For sharper citrus flavor, add an extra teaspoon of orange zest to the dough.
- Chilling the dough logs for 20–30 minutes before slicing helps maintain clean edges.
- Store cookies in an airtight container; their flavor deepens after a day as the zest infuses the dough.
These Cranberry Orange Shortbread Cookies are a festive, bright, and buttery treat that pairs perfectly with tea, coffee, or a holiday dessert spread.
