Indulge in the zesty delight of Orange infused sweet ricotta peach cookies! Creamy ricotta meets vibrant orange zest for a soft, chewy treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla powder
  • Zest of 1 orange
  • 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 medium ripe peach, diced

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla bean paste, orange zest, and fresh orange juice. Mix well until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  2. Step 2: In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour and baking powder. Gradually add this dry mixture to the ricotta mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
  3. Step 3: Fold in the diced peach carefully to avoid breaking them apart. Ensure they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  4. Step 4: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  5. Step 5: Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about two inches apart.
  6. Step 6: Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-18 minutes or until the cookies are lightly golden around the edges. Allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For optimal freshness, store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days, or refrigerate them for up to a week.
  • To reheat the cookies, warm them in a preheated oven at 300°F (150°C) for about 5-7 minutes to restore their softness without drying them out.
  • Serve these delightful cookies with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra touch of indulgence.
  • For the best texture, be careful not to overmix the dough after adding the flour; this will help keep your cookies light and tender.
