Orange zest lends a delicate floral, citrus flavor to this delightfully crisp and light shortbread cookies. Finished with a vibrant orange and cream cheese frosting, they’re the perfect treat to deliver a taste of sunshine on a chilly winter day.
The flavor in these cookies is fantastic, however this recipe is missing a number of instructions, so not for a beginner. I had to add more orange juice to the dough to make it stick together and not just crumble.
For those of you who need it:
Preheat to 350 F
Cream soften butter and sugar together in a big bowl
Add orange juice and zest and vanilla to the bowl
Mix the salt and flour together in a smaller bowl
Gradually add in dry ingredients to the big bow
Roll them out and cut them out onto a baking tray with parchment paper
Bake for about 11 minutes, or keep an eye until you see a golden brown along the edges. The top should still be white
Let them cool and frost
Even tho there's no eggs, these are still good, it just means they won't spread much in the oven. They're the best cookies I've ever made and my classmates love them whenever I make some for school
You have to watch the video to know to know mixing and temp. to bake.
Why are there no eggs. This is not a very good receipt
This recipe is really, really wrong. Not only are there no directions, but there is no egg or leavening agent (baking powder or baking soda) in the ingredient list. The measurement for the salt is also wrong. I would like to make these, but the recipe has to be fixed first,
There is no recipe. It is very frustrating. All I see are the ingredients and a message telling me the recipe will appear after the video by the videos never stop!
Please correct the amount of salt; I don't think you meant "0.13 tsp".
I Can't rate this recipe yet.. Because I haven't baked them. For the cookie recipe, You only have the ingredients listed but no recipe. You do have the actual recipe for the frosting though. Some of us are really new to baking and need the entire recipe. According to the ingredients list, theses cookies sound really good!. Thank You for posting
Where are the directions for mixing these cookies?? Directions for frosting but NONE for mixing the cookies...also, Where is the temperature of the oven for baking these cookies?? I assume 350°.and cream butter and sugar then zest and juice.. then gradually add in flour. Seperate into half refrigerator 1 half while doing first half. But do you roll out and cut out or just spoons full????
