Holiday Lace Cookies

1 cup butter, softened
2 1/4 cups confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1 1/4 cups flour
1 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup dried cranberries

In a large bowl, cream the butter and the confectioners' syrup until light and fluffy. Beat in the corn syrup. Gradually beat in the flour. Mix well. Fold in the pecans and the cranberries. Shape the dough into two 6 inch logs. Wrap each log in the plastic wrap. Chill for at least 2 hours or until firm. Unwrap and cut into 1/4 inch slices. Place 3 inches apart onto ungreased foil-lined baking sheets. Bake at 350 F for 11-12 minutes or until the center and the edges are browned and lacey. Allow the cookies to cool completely before carefully removing the cookies from the foil. Makes 3 dozen
