Cranberry Stix
I have been baking this at 350 degrees.
Ingredients: (Increase by 50% for 3 rolls)
1 stick parve margerine or butter
1-1/4 C. sugar
2 eggs
1 Tsp. Baking Powder
½ Teas. Salt
½ teas. Vanilla
2-1/2 C.Flour
¾-1 C. coconut
1-1/2 C craisins (I have also used chocolate chips instead of craisins)
Mix margarine (butter), sugar, eggs. Add powder, salt, vanilla, then flour. Add craisins and coconut.
Make two logs (or 3) 2x2x9 and bake on sheet for 35 minutes (use flour on your hands to shape the rolls).
Take out of oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Place on wooden cutting board and slice. Return to cookie sheets and cook for 10-15 minutes or until lightly browned
This is an easy (often Parve) delicious treat.
