Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 115 grams unsalted butter
- 150 grams granulated sugar
- 50 grams light brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons orange zest
- 2 tablespoons orange juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 piece large egg
- 200 grams all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 75 grams cornflakes cereal (crushed)
- 100 grams white chocolate chips or chunks
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar using a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Mix in the orange zest, orange juice, vanilla extract, and the egg until well incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
Gently fold in the crushed cornflakes and white chocolate chips using a spatula.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop heaping spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 5 cm (2 inches) apart.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look slightly soft.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
