Would not make this again.
IF I made these again I would leave out the chips and the icing and just make the orange cookie. They were just way way way too sweet.

These cookies are so good and easy to make. They have become a tradition in my house. Every year the children ask will you make the tang cookies?

Would make this again.
The white chocolate chips were a bit much. Might be good without them. Make sure the glaze is not too thin...
