Notes
Baking time can vary between different oven and thickness of cookies. So always keep an eye after 15 minutes.
Cookies always looks soft while taking out and later becomes firm
If the mixture is dry, add few drops of milk to form a dough. If it is sticky you can 1 tbsp flour extra and form dough.
You can add nuts too if you like along with cranberries.
Adding corn flour gives crispy cookies.
You can use wheat flour instead of maida.
