Cinnamon & Orange New York Style Cookies Recipe

Prep Time: 40 minutes
Cook Time: 12 minutes
Cooling/Decorating Time: 1 hour
Total Time: 1 hours 52 minutes
Servings: 12
 
List of equipment needed:
Scales, Baking trays x3, Non stick parchment paper, Large bowl, Sieve, Electric mixer or Wooden spoon, Spatula, Teaspoon (Tsp), Butter knife, Cooling rack, Slotted spatula.
 
Ingredients
For the cookies:
  • 215g Cold block butter
  • 110g Castor sugar
  • 110g Light brown sugar
  • 1 Egg
  • 1/2 tsp Orange essential oil
  • 300g Self raising flour
  • 1 tsp Ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp Baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp Bicarbonate of soda
  • 250g Dark chocolate callets
 
Instructions
For the cookies:
  1. Preheat the oven to 190⁰c, Fan 170⁰c, Gas 5, 375⁰F.
  2. Prepare two/three baking trays with parchment paper.
  3. In a large bowl, partially combine the cold butter, castor and light brown sugar together leaving small chunks of butter throughout the mixture.
  4. Add the egg and orange essential oil to the same bowl, combine insuring that you don’t over mix.
  5. Then sieve the flour, cinnamon, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda into the mixture then combine.
  6. Add the dark chocolate callets and gently combine.
  7. Use your hands to scoop together balls of dough that are 85g per cookie ball.
  8. Once you have weighed all the cookie mixture into balls, put them in the freezer for a minimum of 2 hours. This will allow your cookies to keep their height when baking.
  9. Once the cookies are frozen, place them on the preheated lined baking trays, making sure to give them lots of space as they will spread out. 
  10. Bake them for 12-15 minutes or until they are golden, they will still look slightly underbaked. This is good as they will firm up when they cool down.
  11. Leave on baking trays for at least 10 minutes so they firm up a little, transfer them to a wire rack and allow them to cool fully.
 
Store for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
 
Notes:
  • You can swap out the chocolate callets for milk or dark.
  • Want to make the cookies perfectly circular? You will need a large circular cookie cutter that is bigger than the cooked cookie. Gently place the cutter over the hot cookie (Careful the tray will be hot) and in a circular motion move the cutter so it gently knocks into the sides creating a perfectly round cookie.
  • You can cook them straight away but would recommend freezing them as stated in the recipe above.
  • As/if you are freezing the cookies balls you don’t have to cook them all at once. They would last up to one month from frozen.
