Préparation
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare all ingredients at room temperature.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (2–3 minutes).
  3. Add eggs one at a time, beating after each addition, then mix in vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, alternating with orange juice, until smooth.
  6. Fold in the orange zest and optional white chocolate chips.
  7. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto ungreased baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 10–12 minutes, until edges are lightly golden and centers are set.
  9. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes et conservation

For thicker cookies, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking. Use fresh orange zest for maximum flavor. You can also substitute lemon juice and zest for a bright lemon twist, or dip half of each cookie in melted white chocolate for extra indulgence.
