FROSTED ORANGE COOKIES RECIPE



Frosted Orange Cookies Recipe image

Provided by á-46412

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 medium navel oranges
1/2 cup butter flavored shortening
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup milk ( I use almond for me but not for Chrissy she has allergy )
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 - 1/2 cups powder sugar
1 tablespoon butter or margarine, melted

Steps:

  • With a sharp knife, score each orange into quarters, remove peel, use knife to remove white pith from peel and fruit, discard. Quarter oranges and place in a blender. Add peel, cover and process until smooth ( should measure 3/4 cup ) ( Used my ninja ) In a mixing bowl, cream shortening and sugar. Beat in milk and 6 tablespoons of the orange mixture. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. add to creamed mixture until blended. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart onto a greased baking sheet ( I used parchment paper, did not grease ) Bake at 350 for 10 - 13 minutes or until set and edges are lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool. For Frosting : In a mixing bowl combine powder sugar, butter and enough of the remaining orange mixture to achieve spreading consistency. Frost cookies Freezes well..

Tips:

  • Select the right oranges: Choose firm, heavy oranges with smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid oranges with soft spots or bruises.
  • Zest the oranges carefully: Use a microplane or fine grater to zest the oranges. Be sure to only grate the outer orange peel, avoiding the bitter white pith.
  • Use fresh orange juice: Fresh orange juice provides the best flavor for this recipe. If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use store-bought orange juice, but be sure to use 100% orange juice without any added sugar or preservatives.
  • Don't overcook the oranges: The oranges should be cooked until they are tender but still hold their shape. Overcooking will make the oranges mushy.
  • Let the frosted oranges cool completely: The frosted oranges need to cool completely before serving. This will allow the frosting to set and the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

Frosted oranges are a delicious and refreshing treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and impressive dessert that is sure to please everyone.
