Method

01
Preheat the oven to 180C
02
In a stand mixer, blend the butter and sugar until soft and fluffy
03
Crack in the egg and combine.
04
Combine the oats, flour, cinnamon and mixed spice in a bowl then add to the butter mixture; combine well.

Add the orange extract and dark chocolate chunks and stir to combine.
06
Using a dessert spoon to help you, roll out 18-20 balls of dough and space out on 2 lined baking trays.
07
Slightly flatten the balls, place the trays in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes until slightly golden.

Leave to cool slightly on the tray (so that the chocolate isn't still molten!) before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
