I usually make these around the holidays. After about 6 minutes cooking, start checking in on them every two minutes or so. They go from perfect to burned very quickly.

Categories     Cookies

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 1/2 c all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 c butter, softened
1 c granulated sugar
1 egg
1/4 c orange juice
2 Tbsp grated orange zest
1 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350*. In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  • 2. In a medium bowl, combine flour and baking powder. Add egg, orange juice and zest, and vanilla to butter mixture. Add flour mixture, mix well.
  • 3. Fill cookie press with dough and fit with desired disks; press cookies onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 10-12 minutes or until the edges are light golden brown. Cool 2 minutes on cookie sheets; remove to cooling rack and cool completely.

Tips:

  • Make sure the butter and eggs are at room temperature before starting. This will help the ingredients combine more easily and create a smoother dough.
  • Use a microplane or fine grater to zest the oranges. This will release the most flavor from the peel.
  • If you don't have any orange extract, you can use vanilla extract instead. However, the orange extract will give the cookies a more pronounced citrus flavor.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Sprinkle the cookies with sanding sugar or colored sprinkles before baking for a festive touch.

Conclusion:

These orange spritz cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are light and fluffy, with a bright citrus flavor that is sure to please everyone.
