These are both poppy orange cookies and Poppy's Orange Cookies; she couldn't resist the joke, just like no one can resist biting into these cookies! The bright, sunshine orange flavor pairs wonderfully with the nutty poppy seeds and being encased in a buttery cookie makes it all the better! Poppy's Orange Cookies are a breeze to make and to eat by the handful! Seriously, it's really hard to say no! Poppy knows her way around sweets!
