Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon fresh orange zest
  • ¼ cup fresh orange juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon orange extract (optional)
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the egg, orange zest, orange juice, vanilla extract, and optional orange extract until well combined.
  5. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet mixture; stir gently until just combined.
  6. Fold in white chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  7. Scoop rounded dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until edges are lightly golden; centers may look slightly undercooked but will firm up as they cool.
  9. Let cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks.
