Orange Refrigerator Cookies

List of Ingredients




Orange Refrigerator Cookies

1 cup (1/2 lb.) butter or margarine, at room temperature
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 large egg
2 teaspoons grated orange peel
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup minced walnuts
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt



Recipe



1. In a bowl with a mixer, beat butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Add egg and orange peel and beat to blend.
2. In another bowl, combine flour, walnuts, baking soda, and salt. Add to butter mixture; stir, then beat until well mixed.

3. Divide dough in half. Place each portion on a sheet of waxed paper or plastic wrap. Form each portion into a 2 1/2-inch-thick log. Roll paper smoothly and snugly around each log; wrap airtight. Freeze until firm enough to slice neatly, about 2 hours (or chill at least 6 hours or up to 3 days in the refrigerator). To store longer, freeze up to 3 months; thaw just enough to cut neat slices.

4. Unwrap dough. Using a thin, sharp knife, cut logs crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Lay slices 1 inch apart on nonstick or buttered 12- by 15-inch baking sheets; if cookies flattened when cut, reshape with fingers, if desired.

5. Bake in a 375° oven until edges are very lightly browned, about 12 minutes; if using more than 1 pan in 1 oven, switch pan positions halfway through baking.

6. With a wide spatula, transfer cookies to racks to cool. Serve, store airtight up to 4 days, or freeze to store longer.
