                I'm wondering if there are errors in this recipe. The Basic Sugar-Cookie Dough calls for 2 TBS of vanilla. I used 1 TBS, and it was pretty strong. Then, for these cookies add a TBS of orange zest, too? I used 1 tsp of nutmeg and 1 tsp of cinnamon to counteract the vanilla. Then I used 1 tsp of orange zest and 1/2 tsp of orange extract. The dough tastes ok. In  n  n  n  n  n  ll bake it today. Doctoring a recipe this much is unexpected. Any thoughts?
