Here is how you make Chocolate Orange Sugar Cookies:

Melt the chocolate and butter together (I used the microwave) and set aside to let cool to room temp so it will not scramble your eggs. When cool, place in large bowl and beat in eggs. Then Add vanilla, orange zest, salt, baking soda and cream of tartar. Mix well. Then add the nuts, and part of the flour. Add rest of flour and mix just to incorporate well.Spray cookie sheets with spray. Using a small scoop if available, make small scoops of dough. Drop top in additional granulated sugar, then place on baking sheet. Flatten lightly with palm of your hand.Bake in 325 degree oven for about 10 minutes.
