كوكيز البرتقال التركيّة
European 20 Mins Prep · 20 Mins Cook
- Zest and juice the oranges.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add in the yoghurt, orange zest and juice and beat again for 1 minute. The mixture will look like it has split.
- Sift the flour and baking powder into a bowl. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture in three equal parts. Mix until combined. The dough should be stiff, pliable and only slightly sticky.
- Divide the cookie dough into 40g balls and place on two lined baking sheets. Place in the fridge for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C, gas mark 4.
- Place the golden caster sugar in a small bowl or plate and roll the chilled cookie dough balls in it, then return to the sheets keeping them 3-4cm apart from each other.
- Using a pair of scissors, score the top of the dough balls with a cross pattern.
- Bake the cookies for 20 minutes, until lightly golden brown. They will still be a bit soft so allow them to cool for 10 minutes on the sheets. Cool on wire racks for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- Decorate with gold dust, if desired, and serve. These cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to two weeks.
