- 3 tsps vanilla essence

Method
Step 1
In medium bowl, mix flour, bicarbonate of soda and salt; set aside. In large bowl, beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla with electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition. On low speed, gradually beat in flour mixture just until blended. Stir in cranberries, rosemary and orange peel.

Shape the dough into 4 balls. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate 8 hours.

Heat oven to 180°C. Line baking trays with baking paper. Unwrap the dough; roll out to about 1/2 cm thickness. Cut out your cookies using cutters in your desired shape. Place them on the baking trays 21/2 cm apart.
Step 4
Bake 8 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from baking trays to cooling racks.
