I make these every Christmas and they are always a hit. I add way more cranberries, chips, and nuts than the recipe instructs. This year I couldn’t find the cinnamon chips so I doubled the ground cinnamon and used semi-sweet chocolate chips. Wonderful!  I think I like it this way even better. I don’t change anything else because I like soft, cake-like cookies. :)
