Ingredients
Scale
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon orange zest
- 2 tablespoons orange juice
- 2 large eggs, room temperature

- 1 cup walnuts, finely chopped (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line three large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Prepare the dry ingredients by whisking together flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Make the cookie dough by combining butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, orange zest, and orange juice in a stand mixer. Mix on medium speed until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Combine the dry mixture with the wet ingredients slowly until just combined.
- Fold in white chocolate chips and walnuts gently using a spatula.

Notes
For best results, use room temperature ingredients and do not overcrowd the baking sheets. The dough can be made a day in advance.
