But first, be sure to follow for more recipes curated right here at our cozy B&B!
Ingredients:
6 Tbsp Cold butter
1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp fine sea salt
1/2 cup granulated sugar
Zest from one orange
1 cup mini chocolate chips
1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
1 egg
1 tsp freshly squeezed orange juice
1 tsp vanilla
Orange Glaze:
1/2 cup powdered sugar
3 Tbsp freshly squeezed orange juice
1 tsp orange zest
Mix your flour, sugar, baking powder & salt in a medium bowl and then add 6 Tbsp of very cold butter into that mixture.
With a pastry cutter, fork, or your own fingers, combine everything until you’re left with a crumbly mixture.
Add in the orange zest and chocolate chips, and then set that aside.
Next, you’re gonna add your wet ingredients together, and then pour in your dry ingredients once everything is incorporated.
Lightly flour your surface and pat the dough into a circle, but make sure not to overwork it or press down too much - it can get tough to work with.
You want them to be about an inch to an inch and a half thick.
Stick them in the fridge to set up for 15 mins.
To keep them soft, I like to brush mine with heavy whipping cream right before baking so they lock in that glorious moisture.
Bake at 375 degrees for 12-15 minutes on baking sheets lined with parchment paper, or until the bottoms are nice and golden brown.
Let them sit on the baking tray for a few minutes after you pull them out of the oven, and then transfer them to a cooling rack for 10-15 minutes before dunking them into (or drizzling with) your Orange Glaze.
Enjoy!!
