Mulled Wine Cookies Recipes

MULLED WINE COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Place the butter and sugars in a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the wine, cranberry juice and orange zest. Beat until combined; it's okay if the mixture looks slightly curdled.
• Whisk together the flour, baking powder, Chinese five-spice and salt in a large bowl. Pour half of the dry ingredients into the butter mixture and beat on low speed until combined. Repeat with the remaining dry ingredients until a loose dough comes together. Add in the food coloring and beat just until homogenous, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
• Using a 3/4-ounce scoop, make small mounds of dough on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie. Sprinkle the tops of the cookies with the crushed cranberries. Bake until the cookie tops are dry and slightly wrinkled, 12 to 14 minutes.
