The first time I tasted these orange ginger cookies, I knew we needed the recipe!  Thanks Courtney for supplying that courtesy of Nana Patti Collins ….. just wait until you try these.

Preheat oven to 365 F.

• 1 cup soft butter
• 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 1 egg
• 4 tsp orange peel
• 2 tbsp corn syrup
• 3 cups all purpose flour
• 2 tsp baking soda
• 2 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tsp ginger
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp cloves

Cream butter & sugar until light and fluffy, add egg, orange peel & corn syrup.

Sift dry ingredients together and add gradually to creamed mixture.

Wrap and chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.

Roll between sheets of parchment paper (to 1/4″ thickness”) and cut.  (or form into a log and chill to slice and bake) These cookies do spread out quite a bit so leave lots of room between each one.

Bake at 365 for 9 minutes.
