Instructions
- Sift or whisk together the flour, cardamom, baking soda and salt in a medium mixing bowl. Set aside.
- In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until fluffy and light in color. Blend in the egg, orange zest and orange juice.
- Slowly, add the flour mixture until fully combined.
- Form the cookie dough into a log about 12-inches long and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Dough will be soft and sticky. Pour it onto the plastic wrap along an edge and then wrap it up, forming the log as you go. It might have a lot of bumps and this is ok, as it starts to harden, you can roll it on the counter or another hard surface to make a perfect circle.
- Place it in the refrigerator for a minimum of 4 hours but up to 5 days. If freezing, double wrap with plastic wrap and then aluminum foil.
- When ready to bake (thaw if frozen), preheat the oven to 375°F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Cut cookie dough into 1/4 inch disks and place on the prepared cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Cookies will spread, so make sure they have some room.
- Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until tops are lightly browned. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before moving to a cooling rack. Cooking times vary based on your oven, so watch them closely and remove when centers are tacky and shiny.

Notes
- After feedback that cookie dough was spreading to much, we updated this recipe to include more flour for structure. The also makes them more puffy and chewy. If you prefer the original, please reduce flour to 1 1/2 cups.
