Cooking process

Sometimes you want something sweet, bother with a cake or a cupcake laziness, but the cookies are a great option! Plus the recipe for the cookie, which I want to offer, is that the prepared dough should be held in the refrigerator for half an hour. During this time, you can do other things or just lie down 🙂 You get a lot of orange biscuits! Above it is covered with a delicate crust, but inside it remains soft and lush.

Orange in the ingredients indicate 1 pc. From it we squeeze out the juice and “extract” the zest. I just from one orange came out 90 ml of juice.

Prepare for the cookie with orange all the products on the list.

Ingredients for orange biscuits

It is most convenient to make dough in a food processor. We fall asleep in it flour, baking powder and sugar. Then we’ll send the chopped cold butter and punch it into the crumb. If there is no convenient device, then all of the above is rubbed into crumbs with your hands. I draw your attention to the fact that flour may need more or less than the specified amount. It is better not to add all of it, but look at the consistency. Do not score it with flour, otherwise the cookies will turn out to be tough.

Put the dough in a bag

We take out the dough from the refrigerator, pinch off a piece and form a cookie the size of a walnut. We roll the cookies in sugar powder and lay it on a baking sheet covered with parchment, at a considerable distance from each other, because it “floats”. Bake in a preheated to 180 degrees oven for 15-20 minutes. The cookie will remain light.

Roll balls of dough in powdered sugar

Ready orange biscuits neatly (it is very gentle) we remove from the pan and cool it on the grate. Hot cookies will seem very soft. But as it cools, it will acquire that tender crust, but inside it will remain soft.
