Although my recipe choice seems like it would be a more fitting for July, I thought it would be fun for Halloween. Because of the color, I thought orange creamsicle cookies would be festive. These cookies are eerily similar to an actual creamsicle. It's kind of scary actually, how much they taste like them. The orange extract brings that citrusy taste, while the pudding mix and white chocolate add a creamy feel. They are soft and light. They are everything you could want in a cookie, and more.
For the Cookies you will need:
1 1/8 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup butter (softened) or 1/2 cup margarine (softened)
1/8 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 (4 ounce) package vanilla instant pudding mix
1 large egg
0.5 (12 ounce) package white chocolate chips or chopped wafers
1 tablespoon orange zest
1/8 teaspoon orange extract or orange oil.
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup butter (softened) or 1/2 cup margarine (softened)
1/8 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 (4 ounce) package vanilla instant pudding mix
1 large egg
0.5 (12 ounce) package white chocolate chips or chopped wafers
1 tablespoon orange zest
1/8 teaspoon orange extract or orange oil.
Pre-heat oven to 375 F, and combine butter, sugar, & brown sugar |
Add pudding mix, egg, and extracts/oil |
In a separate bowl combine flour, baking soda, and a pinch of salt |
Gradually add flour mixture to original mixture in about 3 intervals. Add a few drops of food coloring. |
Grate orange zest, and add it to the dough. Be careful not to grate the pit, for it can be very bitter! |
Stir in white chocolate. I gave my wafers a semi-rough chop. I feel they combine better with the dough. |
Allow to cool slightly |
Enjoy |
Happy Halloween! |
