  1. good recipe, a lot of work though. I find these a great substitute for Pepperidge Farms Orange Milano cookies. I would suggest used orange juice concentrate instead of the zest, but I haven't actually tried this yet.
     
  2. These are fantastic!! They taste just like Pepperidge Farm Orange Milanos and my daughters flipped the first time I made these. I've since made them any time I need a little something special for a meeting or potluck. I am ALWAYS asked for the recipe. They take a bit of work but are well worth it! A couple of variations I have used are white choclate dip laid out on waxed paper that has been laced with raspberry syrup, or dark choclate dip laid on waxed paper sprinkled with silver sugar. Unlimited possibilities. The piping bag technique was new for me and this has opened up a whole new door of baking. Thanks so much for sharing and letting ME share!
