Delicious, truly guilt-free cookies with the strong, tasty flavors of ginger, honey, and orange that blend like a party in your mouth! If your store does not carry fruit-based fat substitute, you can easily substitute pureed prunes, or prune baby food in an equal amount.

⅔ cup triticale flour
½ cup rolled oats
1 ⅛ cups all-purpose flour
⅓ cup whole wheat flour
1 ½ teaspoons ground ginger
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.

Provided by Gigirox

Number Of Ingredients 15

COOKIES:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup softened unsalted butter
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
2 tablespoons orange zest
1/2 cup orange juice
ORANGE FROSTING:
2 1/2 tablespoons softened unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons orange zest
1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons orange juice (I used closer to 2 1/2 tablespoons)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, and slat into a medium bowl and set aside. In a stand mixer, cream butter and sugar on medium speed for several minutes until light and fluffy. Add the egg and orange zest and mix until combined. Add flour mixture and orange juice in three additions, alternation between the flour mixture and the juice. Drop tablespoons of dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet at least 1 1/2 inches apart. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and allow to cool on wire racks for at least 30 minutes before frosting. FROSTING: In a stand miner, cream butter and sugar at medium speed for several minutes until light and fluffy. Add orange zest and juice, and mix until smooth. Frost cooled cookies using a mini rubber spatula.

Tips:

  • For a chewier cookie, chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking.
  • To make the cookies even more orange-flavored, add a teaspoon of orange zest to the dough.
  • If you don't have any orange juice on hand, you can substitute milk or water.
  • Be careful not to overmix the dough, as this will make the cookies tough.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set in the center, as they will continue to cook as they cool.
  • Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before storing them in an airtight container.

Conclusion:

These orange delight cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their bright citrus flavor and soft, chewy texture, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.

So next time you're in the mood for a sweet snack, give these orange delight cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
