    Orange Marmalade Cookies

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe Pin Recipe

    I am sharing the cookie recipe for Orange Marmalade Cookies using the candied orange peel that I strained out of marmalade when making orange chicken. This shortbread cookie dough is not very sweet, so it works well with the chocolate and orange flavors.

    The sweet chewy bits of orange added a great texture to the cookies.

    Here is the recipe. I used the candied orange pulp left after straining heated marmalade. You could also use regular candied orange peel and a small amount of orange zest.

    I am Mary, the blogger behind "Oh That's Good!" I am a former nurse, former hobby farm blogger, former vintage shop owner, and current food blogger. I live with my husband and our little mutt Tucker in a lovely retirement community. I am cooking for two and taking inspiration from old cookbooks, magazines, and memories of watching my mother and grandmother cook. I like reducing my food waste and exorbitant grocery bills! I am busy rewriting my recipes for two servings with the option of adjusting the recipe up to four or six servings with just one click.
