Ingredients
- 8.5 tbsp Butter
- 1/2 cup Sugar
- 1 2/3 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tsp Baking soda
- to taste Brown sugar
- 1 Orange peel (grated)
Preparation

Let them rest for about half an hour (or more if you can).
Bake at 350°F for about 25 minutes.
Notes
If you prefer lighter cookies, reduce the amount of sugar.
Do you like a stronger orange flavor? Then grate the peels of two oranges.
