We had the good fortune to be deputized as "tasters" through at least 3 iterations. I loved them all, but the final one had that unique and wonderful shortbread texture, taste was lovely, and the coating on the outside was perfect.
Tried these last week. Boy, getting those crumbs on the outside was a messy challenge. At the time I thought if I make these again I will just mix them in. When I first tasted one I thought the orange was overwhelming, but then in the subsequent days these just got better and better. I'm making another batch today to send to my daughter far away, and yes, I'll be patiently rolling the crumbs on the outside, and including the orange zest. These are truly delicious cookies! Thank you Martin!
I love your little lunchroom story and bet I would have loved whatever was hiding in your lunchbox too! Thanks for sharing your stories and your recipes, looking forward to trying this one!
Fresh grain and orange must be intoxicating. I only have hard wheat kernels for my mill, but I do have pastry flour at hand. Decisions, decisions...
Choices are nice! Maybe even a little blend of those two...
Let me know how it goes! And thanks for reading.

These are the type of cookies I crave.
What kind of mill are you using, and do you like it?
