Double Chocolate Orange Cookies

Instructions
- Combine the cocoa, soda and salt in a bowl, set aside
- Place sweetener and butter in a food processor or a large bowl and mix well
- Add in the egg (whisk if using a mixing bowl), vanilla and orange oil
- Pour the dry ingredients into the wet and combine until mixed well
- Fold in chocolate chips (batter should be thick)
- Use a cookie scoop or roll dough into a ball and place dough on a parchment lined cookie sheet. Do not press down, they will spread

- Let cool on the cookie sheet before transferring to a cooling rack
