These were great.. They were gone the same day
I used an orange glaze instead of frosting
When I have more time I will try them with the frosting


They've been out of the oven for about 30 minutes now and I couldn't resist trying an unfrosted one. They are really light and I think the orange butter frosting is going to be just right. I used fresh orange juice - I'm sure it would have been more "orangy" with concentrate, but this is what I have on hand. Definitely a great cookie!


Update: these were introduced to friends and were a big hit with them too!


Delicious. Really good orange taste. Citrus is another weakness of mine and when you put it in a cookie, heaven. Thank you for the post.


Sounds wonderful! I love orange-flavored anything....feel like I hit the jackpot with this recipe! ;) Thank you!
