It’s that time of year, when all the baking begins. This is one of our favorite cookies to make. One bite into these and it feels and tastes like Christmas. A slight citrus taste and oh so moist.

After mixing everything together I put the dough in the refrigerator for a couple of hours. It seems to make them fluffier.

I added some dried cranberries to this batch and they tasted so good.

The citrus smell of the glaze makes the whole house smell amazing!

Sometimes I add some orange candy on top to help dress them up and let people know what flavor they are.


I hope you like this recipe, let me know if you make them. I always love to hear feedback good or bad.
