RUSSIAN ORANGE DROP COOKIES



Russian Orange Drop Cookies image

This is a "cakey" cookie recipe that I found years ago in an old cookbook that I bought at a garage sale. According to the book, these are traditional cookies served in Russia for the Christmas holiday.

Time 25m

Yield 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2/3 cup shortening
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1/2 cup orange juice
1 teaspoon orange zest
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons butter, softened
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 teaspoon orange zest

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease cookies sheets.
  • Mix together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Stir 1/2 cup orange juice and 1 teaspoon orange zest into the flour mixture.
  • Cream shortening and sugar together. Mix egg into the sugar mixture thoroughly. Slowly blend flour mixture into the egg and sugar mixture. Drop by teaspoonful onto greased cookie sheet.
  • Bake for 8 - 10 minutes.
  • Make the icing: Mix confectioners' sugar and 2 tablespoons butter together until smooth. Pour 2 tablespoons orange juice and 1 teaspoon orange zest into the sugar and butter mixture, mix well. When the cookies have cooled, spread the icing generously over the tops of the cookies.
  • Tip: I often use fresh squeezed orange juice and fresh orange zest. When using fresh orange zest, I usually double the amount to 2 teaspoons.
