Years ago I had these cookies at an open house. They have always been in the back of my mind. The sweet heart who made them gave me the recipe. I always see it when I open my recipe book. Last week I finally made them. They were even better than I remember. I made some for Brett to take into his office this morning. Let me just apologize right now if you can't stop eating them. They are so good! Fresh Orange Cookies
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup margarine
1 1/2 cup sugar
1 cup sour cream
2 eggs
4 cups flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2/3 cup orange juice
3 Tblsp. grated orange zest
Mix together like all other cookie recipes... Then bake at 350 for 10 minutes or until just barely starting to brown. Cool & frost!
Frosting
1/4 cup butter
