Orange White Chocolate Chip Cookies
"Delicious, sweet, and aromatic cookies. My little brother closes his eyes when he eats them and thinks they taste like Trix cereal. I think they just taste delightful. The first time I made this recipe I spilled 1/3 bottle of the orange extract in the bowl. The cookies were still great. If you are partial to orange flavor, add a full tablespoon instead of the recommended amount below."

I made this today, and loved the taste of the final product%u2014though when I made it, there was only two dozen. They grow quite a bit through baking, though, so to get the full three dozen, next time I'll just make smaller cookies.
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I am in the process of learning how to cook. For the past several years, I haven't really had a need or interest in cooking... it seems like every time I had tried to cook in the past, it was a disaster. I was also a vegetarian for over 10 years, so I have a lingering phobia of cooking poultry and fish (I still don't eat read meat.) Practice makes perfect, so that's why I am here... getting inspiration and sharing recipes.
