cup
sugar

2
small eggs

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 310°F.
Using a mixer, cream butter with sugar. Mix on low until fluffy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract; keep mixing on low for 2 minutes.
Add flour and orange zest and mix until a dough is formed.
Roll the dough to ¼ inch thickness and cut with an airplane-shaped cookie cutter.
Place the cookies on parchment paper on a flat sheet pan and bake for 15 to 17 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
Once cookies have cooled, add both chocolates to a bowl and microwave for 20 to 30 seconds until melted.
Dip half of each cookie in the chocolate and place on a cooling rack to set.
