Cinnamon Cranberry Shortbread Cookies

These cookies were super popular last year with my readers and I've been asked to please re post so here you go! Perfect for the holidays and as gifts but I have the feeling you'll be asked to make these all the time. I hope you love them as much as we do. Enjoy!
