Steps:
- Heat oven to 325 degrees with rack in center. Combine butter, confectioners' sugar, vanilla, flour, and salt in large mixing bowl. Beat with a wooden spoon until combined but not too creamy. Stir in dried cranberries.
- Pat dough evenly into an 8- or 9-inch-square baking pan. Bake until just beginning to turn golden, about 20 minutes. Place pan on cooling rack until cool enough to touch, about 20 minutes. Run knife around edges, remove shortbread, and transfer, right side up, to work surface. Use 1 1/2- to 2-inch heart cookie cutter to cut out cookies. Use a paring knife to trim stray bits of cranberry from edges. Cookies will keep for 5 days at room temperature in an airtight container.
BRANDY-NUTMEG CRESCENTS
This one goes out to eggnog lovers everywhere. For the best flavor, grate your nutmeg fresh; we like a Microplane zester for the job.

Steps:
- Whisk together flour, nutmeg, and salt. In a large bowl, beat butter with 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add brandy and vanilla; beat until combined. Reduce speed to low and add flour mixture, beating until just combined. Divide dough into 2 disks; wrap each in plastic and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Working with one disk at a time (keeping others refrigerated), scoop 1 tablespoon dough and roll into a 3-inch log. Gently pinch ends and curve to form crescent. Arrange 1 inch apart on parchment-lined baking sheets.
- Bake until edges are golden, 16 to 18 minutes. Transfer cookies on sheets to wire racks; let cool5 minutes. Meanwhile, place remaining 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar in a shallow bowl. Working in batches, toss warm cookies in confectioners' sugar, then transfer to racks and let cool completely. Cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days. Dust with more confectioners' sugar before serving.

- Noel Nut Balls. Similar to Mexican Wedding Cakes and Russian Tea Cakes, these diminutive treats look like sweet snowballs and are made with nuts. For our Noel Nut Balls, we use Martha's family recipe which calls for pecans and contains a touch of bourbon or fresh orange juice.
- Gingerbread Cookies. Cutout gingerbread cookies made with honey-spice dough or traditional boiled gingerbread dough are spectacular when dusted with sanding sugar on top of freshly piped icing.
- Peppermint Spritz Cookies. For some, it's just not Christmas without spritz cookies. If you're in that camp, we've got you covered with these peppermint glazed cookies made using your trusty cookie press.
- Anise Pizzelle. These thin, waffle-like cookies hail from the Italian region of Abruzzo. They get their intricate shape from a special pizzelle iron. Originally the plates of these irons had family crests embossed on them, but nowadays you'll find them with geometric, floral, or even snowflake patterns.
