Cranberry Orange Terrazzo Cookies

Directions

• Place the softened butter and sugar in a bowl. Beat on high speed with an electric beater (or stand mixer) until creamy and fluffy (about 2 mins).
• Add the egg yolk, vanilla extract, orange zest and salt. Mix to combine.
• Add flour and cranberries. Knead lightly by hand until it forms a dough. Be careful not to over-knead.
• Roll the dough into a 2″ diameter log.
• Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 175C.
• Remove the plastic and use a sharp knife to cut the log into ¼” thick slices.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes.
• Let cool in tray for 10-15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
• Melt the chocolate in the microwave or on a double-boiler. 
• Dip the cookie halfway in the melted chocolate (skip this step if you would like to enjoy the cookie without the added chocolate flavour).
• Place in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to let the chocolate set.
