Orange Drop Cookies image

From the 1963 Betty Crocker Cooky Book. These are a cake-like cookie. For variety, add 1/2 cup of chopped nuts, raisins or chocolate chips. I used chocolate chips because I enjoy the taste of chocolate and orange together.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover oranges. I always have a few oranges in my fridge, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses them up.
