Chocolate Orange Cookies


It's been a while since I have shared a sweet baked treat with my readers, but thanks to Holler, who tempted me with these chocolate orange cookies, the dry spell has been broken. Much like a biscuit with big chunks of dark chocolate and a gorgeous fresh orange flavor, these cookies will stay moist for a few days stored in an airtight container provided they are not devoured shortly after coming out of the oven.

Ingredients:
  • 3 cups unbleached white flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 3/4 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
  • 3 1/2 oz (100 g) cream cheese, softened
  • grated zest from 1 orange
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 3 tablespoons orange juice
  • 2 eggs
  • 5 1/2 oz (150 g) dark baking chocolate, cut into chunks
Instructions:
  • Preheat an oven to 350° and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

  • Combine the flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.

  • In a large bowl, cream together the butter, sugar, and cream cheese until light and fluffy. Now add the orange juice, orange zest and vanilla, and stir to combine. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating until incorporated.

  • Add half of the flour mixture to the bowl and stir. Add the chocolate chunks, stir, and add the rest of the flour to the bowl. Stir until everything is well combined, but take care not to overmix.

  • Place heaping teaspoons of dough onto the sheets, flatten a bit, and bake in two separate batches for 12 to 15 minutes or until the cookies begin to turn golden. Leave on the sheet for a minute and then transfer to a wire rack to cool.

Makes 2 dozen cookies
