To Prepare: Mix wet ingredients with shortening; add cranberries & nuts; slowly add flour as last ingredient. Add more flour if necessary to form a pliable dough. Shape and bake at 350 degrees until cookies are set. Remove and allow cookies to cool. Entire batch contains about 550-600 calories.
The use of Splenda in place of sugar saves a huge 800 calories; another good purpose of the use of cranberries is that they allowed us to cut the amount of vegetable shortening used, in half.
