These cookies were great! I followed the advice of some of the others and left out the orange extract. I also bought the orange flavored crasins. Great flavor!

The intense orange smell from these cookies make them irresistible to me! As some others mentioned, I used half white, half wheat flour. I also did not have orange extract, so I substituted with almond. I figured that I love oranges, cranberries and almonds in my salad, so why not in a cookie?! Oh, and I threw in a few chocolate chips just for fun.

Wow! Great recipe! A keeper! I didn't have orange extract, but I did have lemon extract. I used that & it came out great! I can only imagine how fabulous these would be if I had the proper extract! Wonderful aroma & texture! A keeper!

Very good cookies! I used orange flavored cranberries to enhance the orange flavor. Also, I decreased the amount of white sugar and they were planty sweet. Crisp on the edges, and cakey in the middle.

These were really good! I made them with half WW flour and I also added some cocoa powder to the flour mix which really complimented the organge flavour. I didn't have any orange essence but it was fine without. I made 2 batches, baked one for 9 mins and the other for 11 mins, the 9 min batch was definitely better. I'll make these again!

very easy, but just not alot of flavor

I've made these for Xmas and had people remember them for a year ...asking me please make them again. My hands down favorite cookie of all time.

So good! I've made these three or four times in the past few weeks, and they disappear quickly each time! I added about 1/3 cup of walnuts to the batter, which gave the cookies a nice crunch. I'm a kid at heart, so I also made a quick orange frosting for these too using the orange extract. If you're feeling ambitious, a little orange food coloring in the frosting can echo the flavor! Don't go heavy on the frosting though, since this is a sweet cookie to begin with. Thanks for the recipe!

YUM! So tasty and a great fruity/low fat balance for the Christmas cookie plates!

Oh my gosh... I didn't change a thing and they were the best cookie. Everyone ate them all and were asking for more. Very delicious.

I loved these!! I made exactly as described and they were a hit at my cookie exchange. I think when the holidays are over I'm going to try them with chocolate chips instead of the cranberried. I love orange and chocolate.

This is a great tasting cookie. It's my daughter's favorite at Christmas. Easy, delicious and quick.

This will become a family christmas classic for us! Perhaps a wee bit too sweet, I will cut back to 1/4 cups on each the white and brown sugars.

These are YUMMY!!! A "must bake" to my already extensive holiday baking list!! Wouldn't change a thing....they come out wonderful. A nice "rustic" looking cookie on the dessert tray!!

Cookie would be great as it is.changes I made was to use Smart Balance marg. and 1/2 cup wheat flour. I also used only 1/4 c white sugar and 1/2 c br. sugar. Another addition I made was to chop about 1/2 cup fresh cranberries in additon to the dried ones. Just trying to make it a little more healthy.

very easy...makes more than promised
