Recipe by: Bon Appetit
Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 350 degrees. Grease
heavy large cookie sheets. Combine flour, poppy seeds, allspice and salt
in bowl. Using vegetable peeler, remove peel from orange in strips (reserve
orange for another use) and place strips in processor. Add sugar and
process until peel is finely minced, about 2 minutes.
Using electric mixer, beat unsalted butter and orange-sugar mixture in
medium bowl until fluffy. Beat in egg yolks. Add dry ingredients and beat
at low speed until smooth soft dough forms. Transfer half of dough to
pastry bag fitted with large (number 7) star tip. Pipe dough onto prepared
sheets in 1-inch mounds, spacing 2 inches apart. Repeat with remaining
dough. Bake until cookies are golden on top and brown on bottom, about 12
minutes. Let cookies stand on sheets 3 minutes. Transfer to racks and cool
completely.
For Glaze: In small bowl, blend powdered sugar with enough cream to
form smooth medium-thin glaze. Spread glaze over cookies. Sprinkle with
poppy seeds. Let stand until glaze sets, 40 minutes.
