Tips:

  • Use fresh oranges. Fresh oranges will yield the best flavor and aroma for your cookies.
  • Zest and juice the oranges before slicing them. This will help to release the orange oils and flavor into the cookie dough.
  • Don't overmix the cookie dough. Overmixing can result in tough, dry cookies. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the cookie dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are set but still slightly soft in the center. Overbaking will result in dry, crumbly cookies.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before glazing them. This will help the glaze to set properly.
  • For a thinner glaze, add more milk or water. For a thicker glaze, add less milk or water.

Conclusion:

Candy orange slice cookies are a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their bright orange color and sweet, citrusy flavor, these cookies are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
