How to Mix Butter and Oil


I have this recipe to make some cookies

1 EGG TO BRUSH TOP OF COOKIES

4 CUPS FLOUR

2 TSP BAKING POWDER

1 TBS CINAMON

1/2 CUP CORN OIL 

1 CUP SUGAR

1/2 CUP ORANGE JUICE 

1 TSP BAKING SODA

1 TBS VANILA

ORANGE RIND

2/3 CUP BUTTER 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bit the egg to have it ready to brush the top of each cookie

Mix the Baking Powder, Cinnamon, AND Flour

In medium speed bit the Oil with the Sugar

Mix the Soda in the Orange Juice

Add in the Mixer the Orange Juice 

ADD THE VANILA AND ORANGE RIND

Add the Butter

Add the Flour and mix by hand 

 

MIX the dough BY HANDS enough so you can manipulate it easy

Put the cookies in a greased pan in any shape you want. 

Brush the top of each cookie with the egg and 

bake at 350F until they get a gold color (about 35 minutes)

 

My question is how do you mix the butter with the oil? Unless the butter is heated the mix will be full of butter chunks I guess?

Thanks

Where it says to beat the oil with the sugar...I would cream the butter with the sugar, then add the oil and carry on from there. Most cookie recipes have the sugar and fats creamed first, then eggs, then dry.
