Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Add the egg, vanilla extract, orange zest, and fresh orange juice to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat well until fully combined.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour.
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of the cookie dough and roll them into balls. Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
-
Using the back of a fork, gently press down on the dough balls to slightly flatten them.
-
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
-
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Once the cookies are completely cooled, dust them with powdered sugar for a lovely finishing touch.
