Chocolate is one ingredient Jewels and Heart love to have in their favorite desserts. Chocolate cookies, cupcakes and ice cream. We try not to eat a whole lot of desserts but when we do, we make new and exciting recipes. This Orange Chocolate Cookie recipe is one of our favorite chocolate cookie recipes. Everyone will for sure love them and make sure to have them at your next family party or get together.
Jewels made these cookies (pictured to the right) and she got a little creative with the recipe, she was adding chocolate chips and thought, “Why not add peanut butter chips too?” I have to say, it tasted fantastic!
These orange chocolate cookies taste best when they right out of the oven or microwaved for a few seconds.
To store them, use an air tight container or zip lock bag and they will stay good for days, longer if put in the fridge.
Orange Gives the Kick
Orange and chocolate have a really nice tangy taste to them. If you want to taste the best flavor mix use chocolate and orange but don’t be afraid to change it up with your own combinations.
