Orange tasting butter cookies Ingredients:
1 cup unsalted butter, softened |
1 cup sugar |
3 eggs |
1 teaspoon orange zest |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
4 cups all-purpose flour |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl combine flour and baking powder.
2. In another bowl, cream the butter and add the sugar gradually. Beat the eggs until light and add to the butter-sugar mixture, beating well. Add the flour and baking powder mixture slowly, blending to make a soft and malleable dough.
3. Preheat oven to 375F (190C).
4. To shape each cookie: pull off a piece of dough the size of a walnut and roll it into a short rope. Form a circle or spiral with it, and place on an ungreased cookie sheet, leaving some distance between the cookies. Brush the tops lightly with beaten egg and bake at 375 for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
