class=\"wp-element-caption\">cranberry chocolate chip<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">how to make orange drop cookies <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>you will need:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">BUTTER <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While the standard is to use unsalted butter when baking, I personally prefer salted. I feel it gives an extra depth to the cookies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I suggest European-style butter, or for a less expensive option, try the<strong> <\/strong>Land O' Lakes butter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SUGAR <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You'll need some good old-fashioned granulated sugar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">EGG<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Use one large egg for this recipe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">ORANGE JUICE <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You may squeeze the juice fresh from oranges, but you'll need quite a few. I purchased a carton of orange juice. (Bonus, fortified with calcium, so these are healthy, right?) <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">ORANGE ZEST<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on the size of your oranges, you'll likely need 2 oranges for the rind you'll need for the cookies and the icing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">how do you zest an orange? <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>I prefer to use a zester that doesn't grate the rind finely, but has larger holes. HERE is a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3qgwZDv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">ZESTER <\/a><\/strong>example. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">ALL PURPOSE FLOUR<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Preferably unbleached flour. Chemicals used in bleached flour produce a softer, less-dense texture. Unbleached flour is denser and more structured and can hold up your baked goods better.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>That said, both work!&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">BAKING SODA<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Baking soda helps the cookies rise and prevents the cookies from tasting too \u201ccakey.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">BAKING POWDER<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Baking powder adds carbon dioxide to encourage the cookies to rise up and out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SALT<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Never forget your salt in cookies! You will notice. Salt keeps away the bland.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">CONFECTIONER'S SUGAR<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The confectioner's sugar, also known as powdered sugar or icing sugar, is for the orange butter icing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">TOOLS YOU'LL NEED <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3faVRWT\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">baking sheets <\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>parchment paper <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>hand mixer or standing mixer <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3zQqBX0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">cookie scoop <\/a><\/strong>(1 tablespoon size)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/howtomakeeasycookies.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/orange-drop-cookies-image-4.jpg\" alt=\"Orange drop cookies \" class=\"wp-image-578\" srcset=\"https:\/\/howtomakeeasycookies.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/orange-drop-cookies-image-4.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/howtomakeeasycookies.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/orange-drop-cookies-image-4-360x361.jpg 360w, https:\/\/howtomakeeasycookies.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/orange-drop-cookies-image-4-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/howtomakeeasycookies.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/orange-drop-cookies-image-4-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/howtomakeeasycookies.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/orange-drop-cookies-image-4-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/howtomakeeasycookies.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/orange-drop-cookies-image-4-320x320.jpg 320w, https:\/\/howtomakeeasycookies.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/orange-drop-cookies-image-4-480x480.jpg 480w, https:\/\/howtomakeeasycookies.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/orange-drop-cookies-image-4-720x720.jpg 720w, https:\/\/howtomakeeasycookies.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/orange-drop-cookies-image-4-735x735.jpg 735w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">let's make cookies! <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
