Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large bowl, beat together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the egg, orange zest, and orange juice, and mix until well combined.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until a dough forms.
Step 6
Fold in the dark chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 7
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, portion out the dough into small balls and place them onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 5 cm apart.
Step 8
Lightly flatten each dough ball with the back of a spoon.
Step 9
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Step 10
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 11
If desired, dust the cookies lightly with powdered sugar before serving.
