How to Make Orange Snowdrops
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and ½ cup shortening on medium-high speed for 30 seconds until light and fluffy.
- Add 3 cups powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon baking soda. Beat until well combined.
- Beat in 1 large egg, ½ cup orange juice concentrate, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until thoroughly blended.
- Gradually add 3 cups all-purpose flour, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Drop rounded teaspoons of dough onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let cookies cool on baking sheets for 1 minute before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While cookies cool, prepare the frosting: In a separate mixing bowl, beat together ½ cup (1 stick) softened unsalted butter, ½ cup orange juice concentrate, and 2-3 cups powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Add more powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, until you reach desired consistency.
- Once cookies are completely cool, frost them generously.
