Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 tsp orange extract or 1/2 tsp orange zest
  • 1 egg
  • 4 tsp milk
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Directions:

  1. Thoroughly cream the SOFTENED butter and the sugar, orange extract, and vanilla.
  2. NOTE: I prefer orange extract over the zest because I think it has a stronger flavor. Although zesting an orange is probably cheaper.
  3. Add egg; beat until fluffy, stir in the milk.
  4. Sift the dry ingredients. (The flour, baking powder and salt.).
  5. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet and blend well.
  6. Divide the dough in half.
  7. Chill for 1 hour or overnight.
  8. After an hour or the next day, on a floured surface, roll half of the dough to 1/8 inch thick. (keep the remaining dough chilled until you are ready to roll it.).
  9. Cut into shapes and place them on a greased baking sheet.
  10. At this point you can decorate them with candy, raisins, nuts and colored sugars if you want.
  11. Bake at 375 degrees F for 6 to 8 minutes.
  12. Cool slightly and remove them from the pan.
  13. Enjoy!
