In reply to Dale Venurino. I'm sorry, Dale! Could you have used butter instead of shortening? When I've done that the cookies are definitely flatter. The ones in the picture have been made with shortening.

I made these last night and they were amazing. My son devoured them. Quick question…do you think I could half the sugar and put white chocolate chips in them? If I added it without cutting down on the sugar, it’d be too sweet, so I’m thinking if I cut down on the sugar I could add the chips. Thoughts?

The cookies are tasty and easy to make, but this recipe doesn’t make anywhere close to 48 cookies. I’m not sure it would make 48 even if you doubled it.

Tried these for the first time 2 months ago and we loved them. We all thought the same thing, that they have a barely noticeable hint of a citrus taste. So I have been making them (4 more times ) using half vanilla and half Fiori Di Sicilia, and they taste amazing and not too citrusy!
Thank you for the new simple and delicious addition to our cookie rotation!

In reply to Linda. Linda, I would follow your own family recipe as is or make my cookies per my recipe without changing the amount of flour because altering the amount can greatly affect the outcome and they won't taste as good.

In reply to Linda Waldrep.

Linda, think of the comma as dividing the sifting and measuring instructions.
So, in your above examples
1 cup flour, sifted – you measure the flour, then sift – no need to remeasure
1 cup sifted flour – measure the already sifted flour into one cup
