When I lived in Ireland, I LOVED how prevalent the combination of orange and chocolate was. I ate orange chocolate muffins, truffles, bread, and more. I drank orange hot chocolate. It was heaven on earth. Orange has always been one of my favorite flavors. Combined with the RIGHT amount of chocolate… it’s soooo goooooodddd. 

These Orange Chocolate Chip Cookies have the perfect amount of orange and chocolate. They are one of my absolute favorite cookies. I could eat these and my Cherry Chocolate Chip Cookies all day every day.

Orange Cranberry White Chocolate Cookies

I usually only use brown sugar in my chocolate chip cookie recipes. It creates a softer, fluffier, chewier texture. For this recipe, I decided to do equal parts brown sugar and granulated sugar. 

The cookies were still moist, soft, and delicious. They had a slightly crispier exterior than my other, brown sugar only, cookies.

Cookie Baking Essentials 

Mixing Bowls - These Stainless Steel Mixing Bowls with Airtight Lids by REGILLER are AWESOME. They include different sizes and different color lids, which make them perfect for storing food as well as mixing batter. I love multi-purpose items. Each bowl also has measurement lines inside. AND the bowls have non-slip silicone bottoms, so your bowl won't fly away while mixing.... It happens...

Spatulas - I used to only use regular Tablespoons to mix and gather. Then, I tried a spatula. It makes things so much easier! No more wasted batter! I like this High Heat-Resistant Premium Silicone Spatula Set. It's BPA-Free, Nonstick, AND includes four different shapes for various gathering needs. 

Baking Sheets & Cooling Racks - This TeamFar Baking Sheet with Rack Set includes 3 Cookie Sheet Baking Sheets AND 3 Cooling Racks. All are made of high quality stainless steel (no aluminum). They’re healthy and durable for everyday use. You can cook with the cooling racks ON the baking sheets. This allows any grease to flow down and away from the food for a less greasy dish. It works GREAT with bacon! The sheets and racks are different sizes. The smallest can easily fit in a toaster oven.

More Cookie Baking Essentials

Parchment Paper - Parchment paper makes baking so much easier, especially cookie cutting. I LOVE Reynolds Kitchens Pop-Up Parchment Paper Sheets. They are pre-cut, which is perfect if you're a messy baker like me. I don't have to wrestle to rip the correct size of parchment paper from the roll with my batter, egg, or dye covered hands. These sheets allow me to just grab one that is already the PERFECT size. You can also save over $2 by buying them on Amazon!

Measuring Cups & Spoons — I prefer different color cups and spoons, so I can quickly identify which one I need (after awhile, you naturally memorize which amount is which color). This 12 Piece Measuring Cups and Spoons Set by U-Taste is rust-resistant, sturdy, and dishwasher-safe. It includes 12 different sizes, including 2/3 cup and 3/4 cup. 

Oven mitts - Oven Mitts are a baking must. These Fred and Friends Oven Mitts are super cute, fun, and functional. Kids will LOVE the bear paw design. They also protect the hands AND wrists. I prefer mitts with heat resistant silicone (like these). It makes handling hot items SO much easier.

Happy Baking!
