How to Make Fresh Orange Butter Cookies
- Zest the oranges and lemon. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the orange and lemon zest, and salt. Mix well.
- Beat in the egg and orange juice until fully incorporated.
- Gradually add the flour, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Cover the bowl and chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until firm enough to handle.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Roll the chilled dough into 1-inch balls.
- Place the cookie balls 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
