To Make the Cookies

- Add the egg, orange juice, and vanilla, mixing as you go.
- Reduce mixer to low speed and slowly add in the dry ingredients. Continue mixing until well incorporated, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Roll dough into balls, about 1 large Tablespoon of dough each. Place on your prepared baking sheet, about 1-2 inches apart.
- Gently press down the tops of the dough balls so they're flatter in shape.
