Orange Marmalade Cookies

It's Week #13 of the @steemit-ironchef challenge here on the STEEM platform. The special ingredient for this week is the Orange 🍊! Once again, I chose to keep it relatively simple and easy, yet delicious. A batch of homemade Orange Marmalade Cookies using a fresh jar of Orange Marmalade. These are different than your average cookie. The citrus from the orange and the bitterness of the zest give these cookies a distinct flavor and a fluffy texture. Here's the recipe in a few simple steps:

Ingredients

A Jar of Orange Marmalade
1/3 cup of Butter
1 Egg
2/3 cup of Sugar
1 1/2 cups of Flour
1/4 Teaspoon of Vanilla Extract
1 1/2 teaspoons of Baking Powder
A Dash of Cinnamon

Step 1: Cream the Sugar and Butter

In a large mixing bowl, beat together 1/3 cup of butter and 2/3 cup of sugar.

Step 2: Add Egg and Marmalade

Add one egg and 6 spoonfuls of Orange Marmalade to the butter and sugar. Mix until well incorporated.

Step 3: Add Flour and Baking Powder

Sift the 1.5 cups of flour with 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder and slowly combine it with the mixture.

Step 4: Mix It Up!

Add 1/4 teaspoon of Vanilla Extract and a dash of cinnamon and mix it all up very well.

Step 5: Bake!

Scoop some balls onto a greased baking sheet and place into the oven on 375 degrees Fahrenheit for roughly 10 minutes until golden brown.

Step 6: Enjoy!
