ORANGE CRUNCH COOKIES

• Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes or until edges start to brown.
• Remove to cooling racks.

ORANGE FRENCH LACE COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper.
• Place the almonds on a sheet pan and toast them for 5 to 10 minutes, until lightly browned, tossing once to toast evenly. Place 1 cup of the toasted almonds in a food processor fitted with the steel blade and chop them very coarsely. (Reserve the rest for later.) Combine the chopped almonds with the flour and set aside.
• Meanwhile, place the butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, orange juice concentrate, orange zest, and vanilla in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Off the heat, gradually whisk in the flour mixture until thoroughly combined. Stir in the reserved toasted almonds.
• With 2 teaspoons (tableware rather than measuring spoons), drop rounded spoonfuls of batter (about 1 1/2 inches wide) onto the prepared sheet pans, spacing them at least 2 inches apart. (I put 8 on each pan.) Bake for 7 to 9 minutes, until the edges are golden brown, turning the pans in the oven to brown evenly. Allow to cool and transfer to a wire rack. Repeat for the remaining batter. Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container between layers of wax or parchment paper.

CRUNCHY ORANGE-ALMOND COOKIES (N'ZUDDI)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Spread the almonds on a baking sheet and toast for 15 minutes, or until deep golden brown. Let cool.
• Set aside 36 almonds. Grind the remaining almonds to a coarse powder in a food processor or in small batches in a coffee grinder. Transfer to a medium mixing bowl and sift in the flour, baking soda, and baking powder.
• In a large mixing bowl, with a wooden spoon, beat the butter and sugar until blended. Beat the egg, then beat in the orange zest, juice, vanilla, and salt. Stir in the flour-almond mixture.
• Pinch off a tablespoon of dough at a time, roll into a ball between the palms of your hands, and place 3 inches apart on greased baking sheets. Flatten the balls to 1/2 inch thick under your palms, then gently coax the edges inward to create a loose square shape. Press a whole almond in the center of each cookie.
• Bake the cookies for 30 to 35 minutes, or until deep golden brown. Let cool for 5 minutes before removing from the pans, then cool on a rack. The cookies will become very crunchy as they cool.

SPICED ORANGE CRUMBLE COOKIES

Steps:

• Position a rack in the middle of the oven and heat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch springform pan.
• In a medium bowl, combine the flour, almond flour, brown sugar, salt, cloves and black pepper. Rub the butter into the flour mixture using your fingers until small pebbles form. (Alternatively, use a food processor to pulse the dry ingredients with the butter.) Pour the cream over the mixture, stir just until combined and squeeze until the dough forms ¾-inch clumps. Transfer a little less than half of the crumble (1½ loosely packed cups/210 grams) to a small bowl and refrigerate.
• Transfer the remaining dough to the buttered pan and flatten into an even layer by pressing into the bottom of the pan with a glass. Bake on the middle rack until the edges are golden brown and begin to pull away from the sides of the pan, about 22 to 25 minutes. Cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes. If you tap the surface of the cookie, it should sound hollow.
• Spread the orange marmalade in an even layer over the surface. Sprinkle the reserved crumble over the top. Return to the oven and bake until the top is golden brown, about 35 minutes. Zest the orange directly over the top while the crumble is still warm. Cool completely in the pan, then run a knife along the edges of the crumble before releasing the sides. Dust with confectioners' sugar, cut into wedges and serve.

• 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.
