Chocolate Dipped Sugar Cookies

These are great little pick me up
cookies dipped in dark chocolate.
I sometimes like to add some other
flavorings like almond or maple extract.

Ingredients:
1 large egg
1/4 cup sugar
1/8 tsp salt
1/4 cup flour, sifted
1/4 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp orange zest
2 tbsp butter, melted and cooled
1/2 cup dark chocolate

Directions:
In a mixing bowl cream together the
egg, sugar and salt for about 5 minutes
until light in color, full and frothy.
Add in extracts and mix well.
Add flour and mix until incorporated.
Pour in half of the butter and mix.
Pour in the rest of the butter and mix.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Preheat oven to 375 deg F.
Place dough by teaspoonfuls on sheet,
bake for about 9 minutes until done.
Melt chocolate in microwave, stir.
Dip cooled cookies in chocolate, let cool.
