List of Ingredients




INGREDIENTS:
• 2 1/2cups flour
• 1 3/4 cups sugar
• 1 1/4 cups softened butter [unsalted]
• 1 egg [yolk only]
• 2 teaspoons Orange Flower Water®
• 1 Tablespoon Orange juice concentrate
• 1 teaspoon orange zest
• 1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts [optional]

Recipe



PREPARATION:
•In a large bowl, beat together the butter, egg yolk and the sugar until smooth and almost white in color. Add flour, orange juice concentrate, orange flower water, orange zest and blend well. If you are using the nuts, this is the time to add them in. Shape into small diagonally cut rectangles about 3/4" by 1 1/2". Bake in a 250 degree oven on an UNGREASED cookie sheet. Cookies are done when the bottoms turn pinkish brown in color [35 mins.](If you like a crisper cookie, bake for 45 minutes.)

NOTE: A toasted pecan or a walnut half can be pressed into the top of the cookie before baking.
