Baking powder:11/2 tsp

Orange food colour:2 drops(optional)

Procedure:

In a large bowl slightly beat egg and add juice,sugar,grated skin and butter beat until light n fluffy

Now add dry ingredients and food colour ,knead it in to dough.

Roll it with a rolling pin and cut in to desired shapes with cookie cutter.Continue the process until u use up all the dough.
