Yield: Makes about 3 dozen

Makes about 3 dozen

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup light corn syrup
  • 1/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon Cointreau
  • 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon orange zest, finely chopped (about 1 orange)
  • 1/8 teaspoon fine salt
  • Melon with Orange-Ginger Syrup

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place a Silpat (a nonstick baking mat), or parchment paper, on a baking sheet; set aside. Combine corn syrup, sugar, butter, and Cointreau in a small saucepan set over low heat; stir until butter melts. Remove from heat. Add flour, orange zest, and salt; stir until combined.

Drop heaping teaspoons of batter onto prepared baking sheet, about 2 1/2 inches apart. Place sheet in oven; bake until cookies spread out, bubble, and turn golden brown, about 14 minutes. Remove from oven, and let stand until cookies firm slightly, about 4 minutes. Using a spatula, remove cookies from sheet; place on a wire rack, and let cool until crisp. Repeat until all batter has been used, stirring batter in between batches. Cool cookies completely.

                You could use orange extract instead of the alcohol.

                Instead of Cointreau, you could use Grand Marnier.  It is a great orange-flavored liquor.  All you would need would be a mini bottle.

                You could just by a "nip" you know the small bottles like they have on airplanes.

                I'll use triple sec as I already have it. The problem with switching to something like orange blossom water is that alcohol is often needed as it causes a chemical reaction in the batter. You might try vodka and extra orange rind, I've done that with lemon flavored cookies.

                It seems a little  much to buy a bottle of liquer just to make 36 cookies. Is there a substitute? Something that would be a little more economical?

                cointreau is an orange flavored liquer...potent flavor addition to such a
                delicate cookie.  The rind is very important to add that certain something
                that soooo enhances the   flavor .  Enjoy,  mykele

                Lahlah,
                
                Orange juice would probably work if you reduced it. Start with double the volume the recipe calls for, and cook it over medium-low heat until it evaporates down to the amount you need. Then it'll have that intense flavor that a liqueur would have.

                I substituted the Italian lemon liquer in the place of the orange to serve with hot tea, and they were perfect for an afternoon tea or late night goodie with a cup of hot tea with honey and lemon.

                If you want to add chocolate, dip half of each cookie in melted chocolate or spread the bottom side with melted chocolate.  I make Florentine cookies like this and they are wonderful.

                Would orange juice work as an acceptable substitute for the Cointreau? We have a small citrus grove

                Make sure you cook them long enough;  they must be golden brown or they will not crisp up.  Pretty good but not amazing.
