Macadamia Butter Cookies with Dried Cranberries

They may look like old-fashioned peanut butter cookies, even down to the crosshatch pattern pressed in with a fork, but these treats are completely unique, as they're based on a nut butter made from Hawaiian favorite macadamias instead. The dried cranberries add chewy texture and pockets of bright tartness to complement the sweet and subtle macadamias. Are you a cookie fiend?
