- 1/3 cup unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup superfine sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 1/2 teaspoons grated orange zest
- 2 teaspoons orange juice
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 tablespoon buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons poppy seeds
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- In a medium bowl, cream together the butter, sugar and egg until light and fluffy. Stir in the orange juice and orange zest. Sift together the flour, cornstarch and baking soda; stir into the sugar mixture. Mix in the buttermilk and poppy seeds to form a soft dough. Drop dough by tablespoons onto cookie sheets and press a white chocolate chip into the center of each one.
- Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until just golden. Cool on cookie sheets for about 5 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely. Store up to one week in an airtight container.
