Cooking instructions
* Step 1
In a large bowl, beat the butter with an electric hand mixer for 1 minute on medium speed until completely smooth and creamy.
* Step 2
Add the brown sugar and beat on medium high speed until fluffy and creamy.
* Step 3
Beat in egg and vanilla essence on high speed. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed, and continue to beat until fully combined.
* Step 4
In a separate bowl, sieve together flour, cinnamon powder, and salt.
* Step 5
Slowly mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients in batches. Use the hand mixture to mix.
* Step 6
The cookie dough will be thick and slightly sticky.
* Step 7
Also add in the zest and fresh orange juice. Mix well again.
* Step 8
Transfer the dough into a floured work surface and, with floured hands, divide into two.
* Step 9
Shape each half into an 8 inch log, about 2.5 inches in diameter. The measurements don’t have to be exact.
* Step 10
Tightly wrap the logs in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
* Step 11
After resting time or at the time of baking, preheat oven to 180 degree C for 10 minutes.
* Step 12
Line large baking tray with baking sheets or with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
* Step 13
Remove logs from the refrigerator and roll into coarse sugar.
* Step 14
Slice each log into 12 equally thick cookies and place cookies on baking sheets about 2 inches apart.
* Step 15
Bake the cookies for 12-14 minutes or until brown around the edges.
* Step 16
Allow to cool for 5 minutes on the cookie sheet, then transfer to cooling rack to cool completely.
* Step 17
Melt the chocolate chips in a double boiler. You can use chopped cooking chocolate also. If you are using unsweetened dark chocolate, then use 1 tablespoons of sugar powder to the melted chocolate.
* Step 18
You can melt chocolate in microwave also. For that place chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 30 seconds then take the bowl out and give it a stir. Place the bowl back in the microwave and repeat the process of cooking for 20 seconds, stopping, stirring and returning to the microwave until the chocolate has melted.
* Step 19
Dip each completely cooled cookie halfway into the chocolate and place into a parchment or silicone baking mat.

Sprinkle with orange zest and sea salt (optional).
* Step 21
Place the baking sheet with cookies into the refrigerator to help the chocolate set.
