Cranberry Orange Pecan Cookies

When you grab that frozen pizza out of your freezer, instead of just popping it into the oven, try jazzing it up a bit.  Laurie Crowell from Golden Fig has some ideas to add flair to your pizzas and other frozen dinners and desserts.

1 package premade sugar cookie dough (Immaculate Baking Company has a great one)
1 TB fresh orange zest
3 TB Cranberry Orange Sugar (If you don't have it regular sugar is just fine!)
2 TB chopped pecans

Preheat oven to 350 

In a small bowl mix together orange zest, sugar and pecans. Roll cookie dough in mix (you may need to actually poke some pecans in to make them hold!)

Place on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 10-14 minutes. Remove from pan and let cool on rack slightly before eating.
