When you hear a citrus cookie lemon typically pops into your head. These light and refreshing cookies prove orange can also be the citrus of choice. They're tender and will melt in your mouth. Alone, the cookie has just the right amount of orange flavor and you could enjoy them as is. But, the orange icing sends them over the top and will keep you coming back for more. A sweet accompaniment to morning coffee or as an after-dinner treat. The recipe makes a lot and will serve a crowd.
