Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line baking sheets with silicone mats or parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together butter, shortening, 1 1/2 cups sugar, eggs, orange zest, vanilla and orange extract. Blend in the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt. Gently stir in cranberries until just combined.
