Ingredients

How to make it

  • Combine the vanilla wafer cookie crumbs and 1 cup confectioners' sugar in a mixing bowl.
  • Add the butter to the crumb mixture and blend in well.
  • Stir in the thawed orange juice concentrate; add vanilla and nuts. Mix with your hands until all the ingredients are fully incorporated.
  • With your hands, shape the mixture into balls about the size of walnuts. Place the prepared balls in a food storage bag with the sifted powdered sugar or shredded coconut. Shake the balls around so that the sugar (or coconut) sticks to the balls. You may want to do just a few at a time to prevent overcrowding which could impact the shape of the balls.
  • Remove the balls from the bag and arrange the orange balls in single layer on waxed paper-lined cookie sheet. Store them uncovered overnight in the refrigerator for the best flavor.

    Reaching far back in my mind to my childhood, I remembered these as a crumbly, but hard, cookie. I used lemonade concentrate instead of the orange, and made it entirely in the food processor. This made it very easy, but probably contributed to the resulting cookie dough texture, rather than the texture I remember. I used a cookie scoop to make the cookies similar in size.

    Regardless, this is an easy way to have a sweet without turning on the oven.
