Ingredients:

2/3 cup sugar

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1 tbsp grated orange peel

1 1/2 tsp vanilla

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

3/4 cup dried cranberries, coarsely chopped

Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, stir together sugar, oil, orange peel, vanilla and eggs. Stir in remaining ingredients.

Place dough on lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth. On an ungreased cookie sheet, shape half of dough at a time into 10×3-inch rectangle.
