Time 4h25m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons grated orange zest
1 egg
2/3 cup dark chocolate chips
1/2 cup canned sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated)
1/3 cup coarsely chopped slivered toasted almonds
1 egg
1 tablespoon water
2 teaspoons coarse white sparkling sugar

Steps:

  • In small bowl, mix flour, baking powder and salt; set aside.
  • In large bowl, beat shortening, 1/2 cup granulated sugar and the orange zest with spoon until blended. Beat in 1 egg. Stir in flour mixture until well blended. Knead 5 to 10 times or until dough is smooth. Shape dough into 6- by 5-inch rectangle; divide in half, and wrap each in plastic wrap. Refrigerate about 2 hours or until dough is firm and cold.
  • Heat oven to 350°F. In 1-quart saucepan, heat chocolate chips and condensed milk over low heat 2 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth. Stir in almonds. Set aside.
  • Working with 1 dough half at a time, remove from refrigerator and unwrap. Lightly flour a 12x6-inch rectangle in center of cooking parchment paper. Using floured rolling pin, roll chilled dough to a 12x6-inch rectangle. If dough cracks slightly on edges, press together to mend. Spoon and spread 1/2 cup of the filling on one half of the long side of rectangle, leaving 1/2-inch border around edges. In small bowl, stir 1 egg and water until well blended. Brush edges with egg mixture.
  • Place a hand on either side of the short side of parchment paper. Working quickly, use the long side of parchment paper to help fold dough in half lengthwise over filling to cover. Press down slightly to stick dough to filling. Press with fork to seal 1/2-inch edge on sides. Brush top with egg mixture; sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of the sparkling sugar. Slide paper with dough onto large cookie sheet.
  • Bake 15 to 18 minutes or until light golden brown on top and edges. Cool 1 minute; cut crosswise into 1-inch wide slices with sharp knife, cleaning knife blade as needed. Move individual slices from parchment paper to cooling rack.
  • Meanwhile, repeat steps on assembling and baking with second half of refrigerated dough and remaining filling. Use remaining egg mixture and 1 teaspoon sparkling sugar before baking.
  • Cool slices completely, about 1 hour. Store covered in airtight container in single layer.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the cookies will taste. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature. The cookies should be baked at a temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). If the oven is too hot, the cookies will brown too quickly and the inside will be undercooked.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing them. The cookies will continue to harden as they cool. If you store them before they have completely cooled, they may break.

Conclusion:

Orange chocolate drop cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for any occasion, from a casual get-together to a holiday party. With a few simple tips, you can make sure that your orange chocolate drop cookies turn out perfect every time.
