Our orange tree is currently blooming and its almost ambrosial smell is making me want to eat all things orange flavor. These lavender orange cookies are a beautiful tea time snack and are so easy to make. Makes about 25 cookies.
Ingredients:
4 organic egg whites
Dash of salt
Vanilla from one vanilla bean (or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract)
3/4 cups cane sugar
1.25 sticks of unsalted butter
3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 table spoons orange liqueur (I used Grand Marnier)
1-2 tablespoons of dried lavender
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Using a stand mixer, beat the egg whites with the sugar, salt, and vanilla WITHOUT stiffening it. Carefully melt the butter in a small pot. Slowly add the flour, butter, and orange liqueur to the beaten egg whites.
Cover a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Using a wooden spoon, "paint" circles of dough onto your parchment paper (~ 2 inch diameter and 1/8th inch thick). Sprinkle dried lavender onto each circle.
Bake for 10 minutes.
Once baked, immediately remove your cookies from the baking sheet and place them over a rolling pin or empty bottle. Let cool for 15 minutes.
