Ingredients
1 cup salted butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 chopped smash orange
Instructions
- Using a stand mixer cream the butter and brown sugar together until soft and fluffy.
- In a bowl whisk together the flour and salt. Then add these dry ingredient to the butter mixture, 1 cup at a time, and beat well each time.
- Chop your smash orange, and add to the batter. Don’t mix too much, just until they are incorporated.
- You will find the dough quite dry, but don’t worry it’s supposed to be like that. Just mix the dough with your hands until if firms up into a ball.
- Once the dough is firm, roll it in parchment paper to make a log 2″ in diameter. Wrap tightly.
- Chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours, but up to a week.
- When you are ready to bake the cookies, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
- Use a thin sharp knife to cut the log into 1/4″ slices, and bake for 10-11 minutes.
- Once done baking, let the cookies sit for about 2 minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer to a wire cooling rack to finish cooling.
