Mad About Cranberry Crunch Cookies

Anna, the cookie maven over at Cookie Madness, tried my Cranberry Crunch Cookies and really liked them. Well...maybe I"m being a little too modest:

“Oatmeal Cookie Guy, you are a genius. These are an incredible specimen of the oatmeal cookie variety.”

Thanks, Anna!

Yep, they're really good. I made them, too! I'm craving them again, but just haven't had time to make them. Sigh.

These are really great....I can see (and taste) why they won First Prize!! Be prepared to bake up a few batches of these winners when you come home for Christmas.

I just found your site and spent *way* too much time looking at all the wonderful recipes. You're now in my Google Reader so I don't miss another post :)

One quick question that I'm sure you've answered time and time again, but for us newbies, what kind of oatmeal do you use: old-fashioned? Quick-cooking? I'm pretty sure it's not instant or steel-cut.

Thanks again for the original and clever recipes!

Hi, Mumma. I'd better bring my baking sheets and Silpats with me! :-)

Hi, Diane. Thanks for stopping by and for adding me to your Google Reader! :-)

As for your question: I use old fashioned oatmeal in my recipes. I think you could use quick cooking oatmeal in a pinch, but the texture of the finished cookies will be a little mealier and drier.

I hope that helps!

Thanks so much. I have a ton of old fashioned oats in the freezer, so that will work out *great* because I'm definitely going to make as many of your creations as I can :)
