- Zest the oranges before juicing them: Orange zest adds a burst of citrusy flavor to the drops. Use a microplane or fine grater to zest the oranges.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in tough drops. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough helps the drops hold their shape better in the oven.
- Bake the drops until they are just set: Overbaking the drops will make them dry. Bake them until they are just set in the center.
