How to Make Orange Cookies (Biscuits)

When you feel like some fresh cookies, how about trying these orange flavored beauties with full zesty flavor. Let me know what you think in the comments section. I love reading comments and seeing pictures of what you have been making.

Lets get baking!

You will need:

• 1 egg yolk
• 60 grams sugar
• 65 grams cold butter
• 1 teaspoon orange rind finely chopped
• 110 grams flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 4 teaspoons milk

Add the flour, sugar, butter, baking powder, orange zest, milk and egg yolk to a large bowl.

Mix together with a wooden spoon until the mixture starts to come together then using your hands work the butter into the dough. You may need to ask a little one to help with this step, they love it!

Wrap the dough up with plastic wrap and put into the fridge for about 1 hour, to firm up. Sisters holding the dough

Now it is time for rolling. Use your hands to roll the dough into balls 25 millimeters in diameter. When all of your dough has been used up, press the tops down using a fork to flatten them into a biscuit shape. Thanks for helping Maggie :)

Heat your oven up to 180 degrees C (356 F) and cook for 10-15 minutes.

These biscuits tasted great and were thoroughly enjoyed by all (especially my little sister).

I hope you enjoy and be sure to share a picture if you make them!
