Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon orange zest (from about 1 large orange)
  • 3 tablespoons fresh orange juice
  • 1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat and Prepare:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
    • Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  • Mix the Dry Ingredients:
    • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • Cream the Butter and Sugars:
    • In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
    • Add the egg and vanilla extract, beating until well combined.
  • Add the Orange Flavor:
    • Mix in the orange zest and fresh orange juice until incorporated.
  • Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
    • Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
    • Fold in the white chocolate chips.
  • Shape the Cookies:
    • Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake:
    • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look set.
    • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For an extra burst of flavor, consider adding more orange zest or juice to the dough.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
