1 cup white sugar
2 egg yolks
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon orange extract
1 teaspoon orange zest
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup cornmeal
½ teaspoon salt
⅓ cup granulated sugar for decoration

Steps:

  • in a medium bowl, cream sugar and butter until fluffy. Add egg yolks, vanilla, orange extract, and orange zest. Cream well.
