The most well-known traditional cookies are Gingerbread, Sablé Breton, Biscotti, Alfajores, Thumbprint, Krumkake, Pfeffernüsse, Spitzbuden or Linzer, Rugelach, Sugar Cookies, and many, many more! One that I love 💖 baking for the Holidays is Orange Ricotta Cookies!
These are light, fluffy and so yummy! They’re easy to make and set the tone perfectly for the Holidays! The orange glaze gives a nice citrus 🍊 tone to those little guys! This recipe makes 36 cookies but I’m warning you, there’s never enough around!
The recipe is easy but it takes time to make them…
First, they’re chilled for 30 minutes which improves the flavor and also prevents the cookies from spreading too much. After they’re baked, it’s very important to allow them to cool to room temperature before icing, about 1.5 hours ⏰. When they’re glazed, they have to dry completely, giving another 3 hours of passive time. All that anticipation is sooo worth it!
I’ve been baking 👩🍳 these Orange Ricotta Cookies for years therefore I had time to experiment with different temperatures and baking times.
– I tried 350ºF with the rack positioned in the middle of the oven – the bottom of the cookies was way too dark even when rotating the sheets halfway through.
– I reduced the heat to 325ºF and they took much longer to bake, 20 minutes, still with a darker bottom.
What I find works the best is to position the rack on the top 3rd of the oven and bake for 15 minutes, rotating the sheets halfway through cooking. These delicate cookies are far enough from the heat source 🔥 therefore giving a beautiful end result!
They can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week. They also freeze very well for up to 2 months 📆.
Incredibly light and tasty, these festive Orange Ricotta Cookies are perfect for the Holidays 🎄! With a delicious citrus glaze, these little guys are a nice change from other traditional cookies. Make sure to bake a couple batches as they disappear pretty fast…
