Orange Caramel Cookies

20171216_134453
In this week’s installment of “They look nothing like the photos on the original recipe” we have these butter cookies, rich with flavor from tons of orange zest, with melted caramel white chocolate (apparently they sell caramel aero chocolate here in Bulgaria: http://i5.otzovik.com/2016/10/27/3971241/img/39375736.jpeg) on top, instead of powdered sugar icing, and blanched orange peel.

Some of the comments under the recipe are on point: mixing the butter for too long creates flatter cookies, and also – refrigerate the dough for an hour before baking. Funny that a recipe that is part of a series about the importance of treating butter right didn’t include these fine tips.
