Orange Cookies


Ingredients:

2 C sugar
1 C Crisco (has to be vegetable shortening, butter or margarine doesn’t work as well)
Cream together
Add 2 eggs
Juice from 1 large orange (1C OJ)
1 C buttermilk or sour cream
4 C of flour
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
Bake at 400 for 11-12 minutes
After cookies have cooled slightly drizzle with icing.
Icing
1 C powdered sugar
2 Tablespoons orange juice

Directions:

Make the icing thick, you may need more sugar. I usually juice half of an orange and then put in enough powdered sugar to make a thick icing. I don’t measure it.
