Orange Creamsicle Cookies

I found this on www.the-girl-who-ate-everything.com and they are yummy, everyone that has eaten them said they loved them, enjoy!

Orange Creamsicle Cookies
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup (sticks) butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 Tblsp orange zest (for me that was the zest of 2 oranges)
2 cups white chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 375 degrees
In a small bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.

In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars until light and creamy.  Beat in egg and vanilla until smooth.  Gradually add flour mixture until combined.  Stir in orange zest and white chocolate chips.

Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets.  Do not flatten cookies; it will make them dry.  Bake 8 to 10 min or until golden brown around edges.  Do not overcook!  Cookies will be plump.  Cool for several minutes on cookies sheets before transferring to rack to cool completely. Store in airtight container!

These are really yummy!
Nourishing of our souls:
Today I want you to do one nice thing for someone else, it can be writing a letter and mailing it, making a phone call, sending an email, baking a treat, offering to scratch someone's back or rub their feet, cleaning their bedroom or doing their laundry, telling them something you like about them, spending time doing something they like as in playing a game with them or reading them a book.  The list goes on, find one thing today and go outside your comfort zone and DO IT, it will make you happier inside, younger on the outside, prettier inside and out and take years off your life!  magical!
