Time 1h30m

Yield about 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
2/3 cup sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
4 ounces milk chocolate, chopped

Steps:

  • Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Beat the butter and sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Reduce the mixer speed to medium low; beat in the flour mixture in 2 batches until combined.
  • Transfer the batter to a resealable plastic bag and snip the corner to create a 1/2-inch opening. Pipe the batter into 1/2-by-3-inch strips, about 2 inches apart, on the prepared baking sheets. Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until the cookies are golden around the edges, about 15 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to racks to cool completely.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment. Put the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until smooth. Dip the cookies halfway in the chocolate, letting the excess drip off, then place on the prepared baking sheet. Refrigerate until the chocolate just sets, 10 to 15 minutes.

CHOCOLATE-DIPPED ORANGE COOKIES



Chocolate-Dipped Orange Cookies image

This recipe originally called for lemon in place of the orange but orange and chocolate translates to Christmas for me. Found the original in The Washington Post who attributed the Ghirardelli Chocolate Cookbook. In homage, consider using Ghirardelli chocolate for this recipe. Whatever chocolate you use, use block chocolate, not morsels. ****dough needs 30 to 60 minute minimum chill in the fridge (good for making the day before)**** These turned out to be the star on the Christmas platters. Several folks would not believe these were not purchased! They are that good with bittersweet chocolate & about 3+ teaspoons orange zest. Will make next with tangerine zest!

Time 31m

Yield 60 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
16 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature (2 sticks)
1 large egg
2 teaspoons orange zest, finely grated
1 teaspoon orange extract
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups flour
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
10 ounces semisweet chocolate, broken & chopped into 1-inch pieces
1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • For the dough: Combine the confectioners' sugar and butter in the large bowl of a stand mixer or hand-held mixer; beat on medium speed for 3 to 4 minutes, until light and fluffy. Add the egg, lemon zest, and lemon and vanilla extracts.
  • Combine the flour, baking powder and salt on a sheet of wax paper. Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined. Use well-floured hands to form the dough into a compact log 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 to 60 minutes.
  • When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Carefully cut the dough into 1/4-inch-thick slices, turning the log slightly every few cuts to ensure even, round slices. Place the rounds 1 inch apart on the baking sheets. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes, until the cookie edges are golden. Cool for 1 minute on the sheets, then transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. Keep the parchment paper on the baking sheets.
  • While the cookies are cooling, make the glaze: Melt the chocolate in a small metal bowl suspended over a saucepan of very hot water over medium heat, stirring occasionally until smooth. Add the melted butter and continue stirring to mix well. Remove from the heat.
  • Place a wire rack on one of the parchment-paper-lined baking sheets. Holding each cookie vertically, dip it halfway into the melted chocolate mixture. Place the cookie on the rack and repeat with the remaining cookies and chocolate. Let the cookies set for 45 to 60 minutes, until the chocolate is firm, before storing.

Tips for Making Perfect Chocolate-Dipped Orange Wafer Cookies:

  • To ensure the cookies are crispy, it's crucial to bake them until they are golden brown around the edges. Keep a close eye on them during the baking process to prevent overbaking.
  • While the cookies are still warm from the oven, use a pastry brush to apply a thin layer of melted butter. This will help the chocolate coating adhere better.
  • For a smooth and even chocolate coating, temper the chocolate before dipping the cookies. This process involves gradually heating and cooling the chocolate, resulting in a glossy and stable coating.
  • To achieve a variety of flavors, consider using different types of chocolate, such as dark, milk, or white chocolate. You can also add flavorings like vanilla extract, orange zest, or chopped nuts to the melted chocolate.
  • For a festive touch, decorate the chocolate-dipped cookies with sprinkles, chopped nuts, or edible glitter before the chocolate hardens.

Conclusion:

These chocolate-dipped orange wafer cookies are a delightful treat that offers a perfect balance of sweet and tangy flavors. With their crispy wafer texture and rich chocolate coating, they are sure to satisfy your cravings. Whether you're preparing them for a special occasion or simply as a sweet snack, these cookies are a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.
