A nice thing to have around during the holidays, but don't expect them to stay around long. These orange flavored cranberry cookies are tart and delicious, not to mention beautiful. Not really a favorite of kids.

Meringue Mushrooms

Submitted by: Holly Wilkins

These take a bit of work and time, but are spectacular. They are highly prized for Christmas gift-giving! As with other meringue recipes, these should only be made on a dry day. You will need a pastry bag with a plain tip. If you can save some green plastic berry baskets from the summertime, these mushrooms look totally realistic placed in them.
