Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

8 tb Butter(1 stick)soft Finely chopped
1/2 c Light Brown Sugar 1 3/4 c Flour
2 tb Orange Peel Grated Glaze:
1/4 ts Salt 1 1/2 c Powdered sugar
1 Egg 2 tb Orange Juice
1 oz Semisweet Chocolate,very 4 tb Lemon Juice

Cream butter, sugar, orange peel, and salt in the mixer at high speed for 1
to 2 minutes, untill light and fluffy. Add the egg and beat 1 minute more
at medium speed. Add the chocolate and the flour and beat at low speed just
enough to combine. Divide the dough, flatten each half into a 6-inch
circle, wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least 2 hours or, better yet,
overnight. When ready to proceed, preheat oven to 375 F. Roll out each
circle of dough, one at a time, between sheets of lightly flowered waxed
paper until scant 1/4 inch thick, sprinkle with flour once during rolling.
Carefully pel off the top piece of paper and, using 2 1/2 inch round
cutters, cut the dough-still on the bottom sheet of wax paper- into rounds
but do not lift from paper. Slide the paper of dough on a cookiesheet and
set in the freezer for 5 minutes. Than use small spatula to remove the
cookies and space 1 inch apart on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake the
cookies in the middle of the oven for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly
browned on the edges. Transfer at once to wire racks. For the glaze: whisk
the powdered sugar with the juices until smooth. Using pasrty brush, brush
the glaze on the still warm cookies. As soon as glaze is hard you can store
them with waxpaper between the layers in airtight containers.
