MANDARIN ORANGE MARMALADE COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F & Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or silpats.
• Whisk together flour and baking powder in a medium bowl; set aside.
• Place butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl and blend with an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture appears grainy but well-mixed.
• Add egg and orange marmalade, beating until smooth; reduce mixer speed to low and add flour mixture and mandarin oranges.
• Mix only until combined; do not overmix.
• Fold in white chocolate chips; chill mixture for 30 to 60 minutes to firm up.
• Drop tablespoons of dough onto prepared cookie sheets, placing cookies 1-1/2 inches apart.

MANDARIN ORANGE COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°.
• In a large bowl, cream the butter with the sugars for about 2-3 minutes. Add the egg and orange extract and beat for another 1-2 minutes. (One teaspoon of orange extract yields a fairly subtle orange flavor in the cookies, so if you want more orange flavor, go ahead and add a little more.)
• Add the flour, baking soda and salt and mix until well combined.
• Once the mandarin oranges are drained, place them on a plate and mash them with a fork. Don't re-drain the oranges, and then add them to the dough. Mix just until combined.
• Use a cookie scoop to scoop the dough onto cookie sheets that have been lined with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
• Bake cookies for 8-9 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
• To make the glaze, mix the powdered sugar, orange extract and about 2 tablespoons of reserved mandarin orange juice together. Add more juice as needed to achieve the desired consistency. Spoon or drizzle about 1 teaspoon of glaze onto each cookie.

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C), fan-forced.
• In a mixing bowl, cream together Salted Butter (75 gram) and Powdered Confectioners Sugar (75 gram) until fluffy.
• Grate in the zest of the mandarin orange and drizzle in 1 1/3 Tbsp Mandarin Orange (1).
• Add some Orange Extract (1 teaspoon) followed by an Egg (1).
• Once it is well combined, stir in All-Purpose Flour (200 gram) and knead until it turns into a dough.
• Portion out 20 grams of dough into a separate bowl. Stir in 1/2 Tbsp of salted butter and Green Food Coloring (as needed). Transfer into a piping bag and set aside.
• For the rest of the dough, dye it with some Orange Food Coloring (as needed) and knead until the color is even.
• Roll them into 1/2 Tbsp balls.
• Then insert a Whole Clove (as needed) onto each ball. Pipe out the green paste you prepared earlier to mimic it like the leaves of the oranges.
• Bake them in the oven for about 30 to 35 minutes at 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Let them cool before transferring to a container or serving.
