Yapılışı

Preheat and prep the pan

Heat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper so the cookies lift off easily.

Cream fats and sugars

Beat the butter and shortening until smooth. Add granulated sugar and brown sugar, then mix for 1–2 minutes until well combined.

Add the eggs

Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing briefly after each addition so the batter stays even.

Mix in the flour

Stir in the flour just until the dough comes together. Stop mixing as soon as you don’t see dry flour.

Portion the cookies

Scoop walnut-sized portions, roll lightly, and place on the baking sheet with space between them. Press gently if you want a slightly flatter cookie.

Bake

Bake for 10–12 minutes, until the edges are lightly set. Cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then move to a rack.

Make the orange icing

Whisk powdered sugar with orange juice to a thick but pourable consistency. Add a touch more juice if it’s too stiff; stir in zest if using.

Ice and set

Once the cookies are completely cool, drizzle or dip them in the icing. Let the glaze set for 10–15 minutes before serving.

This Fruit Loop cookies recipe uses a simple butter-and-shortening dough and finishes with a quick orange icing. The ingredient list stays short, and the steps are easy to follow—great for a dessert tray or an afternoon treat.
