This customer-submitted treat was adapted from a "colonial times" recipe that suggested coriander was a popular spice for cookies at the time. Who would have thought?

Ingredients
For cookies:
Coriander Seeds
5 tsp. Coriander Seeds (or Ground Coriander Seeds)
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
Mayan Sea Salt
1/2 tsp. Mayan Sea Salt
1/4 tsp. baking soda
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup buttermilk
Pure Orange Extract
1 tsp. Pure Orange Extract
For optional glaze:
1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar
2 Tbsp. buttermilk
2 tsp. orange zest
Pure Orange Extract
1/2 tsp. Pure Orange Extract
Directions
Step 1
For cookies: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Toast coriander seeds in a small skillet over medium heat for about 3 min. or until fragrant. Transfer to a spice grinder and grind until fine. (Alternately, use pre-ground coriander.) In an electric mixer, cream together butter, salt, baking soda, and ground coriander. With mixer running, gradually add sugar then egg. Add flour alternately with the buttermilk and extract, blending well. Drop dough by the teaspoon on lightly greased or parchment-lined cookie sheets. Keep dough rounded and spaced about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10 to 15 min. or until just lightly browned around the edges and just barely firm on top.
Step 2
For optional glaze: Whisk all ingredients together and drizzle over cookies when they come out of the oven.
