Print Recipe Pin Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 1 kilo All Purpose Flour
  • 2 cups Sugar
  • 1/2 cup of Milk
  • 250 grams of Butter room temperature
  • 4 Eggs + 1 Egg brush over cookies
  • 1/2 cup Orange Juice no pulp
  • 1 Orange Zest
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • 4 teaspoons Baking Soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
 

  • Beat flour, butter, sugar until fluffy.
  • Add in eggs, one at a time, baking soda, milk, orange juice.
  • continue by adding in orange zest, vanilla extract, salt
  • beat until it has become a soft batter.
  • Take a small piece of dough and start to roll it out just enough so that you can twist it. You can actually just make any shape you like…I also like the simple round cookie shape then the twisted shape. (my mom and my aunt actually sprinkle sugar over some of the cookies ,this gives it a bit more of a sugary taste)
  • Beat one egg and brush over cookies. Bake at 180 degrees until golden brown.
