These cookies have a delightful citrus flavor; not overpowering or bitter, but perfectly sweet and tart. Additionally, they are made with brown sugar as opposed to white, which means you can use considerably less. They may be frosted or glazed if you so choose, but the flavor and texture is perfect on it's own. I suggest enjoying topped with raspberry jam with a glass of warm milk. :)
Dough 1/2 cup softened butter 1/2 cup brown sugar 1 tablespoon milk 1 teaspoon vanilla 1 1/2 tablespoons minced orange zest 1/4 teaspoon salt 2 cups flour 1 egg 1 teaspoon baking soda 2 tablespoons butter for brushing 1/4 cup white sugar for dusting First, pulse sugar, butter, and egg in a blender until pale and creamy. Transfer to a mixing bowl and add all other ingredients. Mix well. Chill in refrigerator for 1-2 hours. Remove and roll out on a floured surface to a thickness of 1/2 inche. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Cut out bears or other desired shape and bake for 7-9 minutes, watching closely. Remove from oven and brush with butter, then sprinkle with sugar. Serve, or let cool and store in an airtight container.
