Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together softened butter, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy.
Beat in the egg, orange zest, orange juice, vanilla extract, and optional orange extract until combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture until just combined.
Fold in white chocolate chips evenly throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop, drop rounded dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 8-10 minutes until edges are lightly golden; centers may appear slightly undercooked but will firm up as they cool.
Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks.
