When I want to drop a little sunshine into my cookie jar, I bake up a double batch of these citrusy and sweet treats. Ingredients:
1 cup shortening |
1 cup sugar |
1 egg |
1-1/2 teaspoons orange extract |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
sugar or orange-colored sugar |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, cream shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg, extract and salt. Add flour; mix well. Drop rounded tablespoonfuls of dough 2 in. apart onto ungreased baking sheets.
2. Bake at 375° for 10 minutes or until edges begin to brown. Cool for 1-2 minutes; remove from pans to wire racks. Sprinkle warm cookies with sugar. Yield: 3-1/2 dozen.
