I know lots of recipes roll the cookie dough into balls, and then put these in the fridge but that never works for me. No, you can absolutely just put chocolate orange chunks in plain cookie dough. I would however replace the orange with 1tsp of vanilla extract.It’s also great for baking with. It’s basically chocolate. If you can make something with either milk or dark chocolate, you can do it with orange chocolate too! However, use what you’ve got. If you’ve only got caster, just use that, if you haven’t got brown, don’t worry, just increase the white. As long as the weight is the same, give it a go. Do You Need to Put Orange Flavour in the Cookie Dough? I love chocolate orange. Whether it’s a Terry’s Chocolate Orange, a Chocolate Orange Cheesecake, Brownies, Loaf Cake, or orange hot chocolate. I love the flavour combination.

Divide into 20 equal balls and place on baking trays (I do 6 per tray, and bake in 2 batches, leaving the leftover dough in the fridge until I need it) Chewy, filled with massive chunks of chocolate, and gorgeous orange flavour. They are perfect for anyone that likes orange chocolate. is a standard Terry’s Chocolate Orange, if you are using stores own, or mini segments, rounding to 150g is fine I like the texture that you get from this mix, and while I use caster sugar in most bakes, I just think granulated has a better feel in a cookie.Some cookie recipes spread like mad, others barely spread at all. To an extent, this can depend on your oven, so pay attention. If you press down a lot and they all join together to form one giant Chocolate and orange cookie, maybe bake from balls with no press down next time. Sift in the flour and bicarbonate of soda and mix for 2-3 minutes until the mixture is smooth and soft
