from Peacocks on my Porch
1 1/2 cup sugar
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup sour cream
2 eggs
4 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2/3 cup orange juice (just squeeze a couple that you zest)
3 T orange zest
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Beat sugar and butter until fluffy. Add sour cream and eggs; beat well. Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, orange juice, and orange zest. Blend well. Drop by spoon on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges just start to brown (they are better a little underdone than overdone). Frost while warm (I frost them right out of the oven, still on the pans, so the frosting melts and turns into a glaze.)
