I love the combination of any fruit flavor with chocolate. These are super, unique cookies and they are pretty easy to make. Only makes 3 dozen, so you may want to double the recipe :)
Ingredients:
1/2 cup shortening
3 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon grated orange rind
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Combine first 4 ingredients in a large bowl and beat at low speed until smooth and creamy.
3. Add vanilla and orange rind and beat well.
4. Combine flour and salt and add to cream mixture; beating well.
5. Stir in chocolate chips.
6. Drop dough by heaping teaspoonfuls on to cookies sheets and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until edges just begin to brown.
7. Cool on wire racks.
