Cream butter and sugar until fluffy - if doing so, include the orange zest here. Add in vanilla and mix to combine. In thirds, add flour and mix well. Divide dough in half and roll out on a Silpat or parchment paper into a ½" thick oval, and chill for an hour in the fridge.

Preheat the oven to 350F.

Using a cookie cutter, cut out shapes and form cookies onto baking sheets.

Bake for 10 - 12 minutes.

Let cool - while the cookies are cooling, in a microwave, melt together chocolate chips and heavy cream in 10-15 second bursts in the microwave.

Dip and let the chocolate harden. Enjoy!
