1-1/2 Cups Sugar or sugar substitute-sugar baking blend* equivalent to 1-1/2 cups sugar
3 Teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
1 Cup Butter, softened or I Can't Believe It's Not Butter
3/4 Cup fresh or frozen egg product, thawed (Egg Beaters)
2 Teaspoons Vanilla
2 Cups All-Purpose Flour
3/4 Cup Whole Wheat Flour
2 Teaspoons Cream of Tartar
1 Teaspoon Baking Soda
1/4 Teaspoon Salt
1 Cup chopped Peanuts
1 Cup chopped Walnuts
1 Cup dried Currants
1 6-ounce package Dried Cranberries (1 cup)
*To make the cookie dough a little firmer and easier to drop, chill it for up to an hour.
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of the sugar or sugar substitute-sugar baking blend and 1 teaspoon of the cinnamon; set aside.
2. In a large bowl, combine butter and the remaining sugar or sugar substitute-sugar baking blend; beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until combined. Add egg product and vanilla; beat until combined.
3. In a medium bowl, combine all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, salt, and the remaining 2 teaspoons cinnamon. Add to beaten mixture; beat until well mixed. Stir in the peanuts, currants, and cranberries.
4. Drop by rounded teaspoons 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. Sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar mixture.
5. Bake for 7 to 8 minutes or until lightly browned. Transfer to wire racks; let cool. Makes about 60 cookies.
Test Kitchen Tip: If using a sugar substitute-sugar baking blend, we recommend Splenda® Sugar Blend for Baking or Equal® Sugar Light. Be sure to use package directions to determine product amount equivalent to 1 1/2 cups sugar.
