Ingredients:  
Preheat oven to 325º
1 cup Quick cooking rolled oats
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 large egg, beaten with a fork
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp orange juice
3 Tbsp flour
1/2 tsp salt

Directions:
Directions:
In a medium bowl, mix oats, sugar, and butter together with a wooden spoon.
Stir in egg until well blended, then vanilla and orange juice. Add flour and salt and stir to mix. Batter will
be somewhat thick.
Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silpat.
Drop batter by 1/2 teaspoonfuls onto sheets, at least 2 in. apart. ( cookies will spread ), up to 12 per sheet.
Bake until golden brown, switching positions of sheets halfway through, 8-10 minutes total.
Cool cookies on baking sheets until just holding their shape, about 2 minutes. Don't wait until they are
completely cool, as they will be harder to remove.
With a thin metal spatula, gently transfer to cooling racks and let cool completely.
Melt chocolate over hot water. Stir to smooth.
Thinly spread chocolate on flat side of half of the cookie. Top with another cookie, flat side to the chocolate.
Allow cookies to harden on the rack. About 2 hours.
These can be made ahead and kept for about a week in an airtight container.

Personal Notes:
In December I am invited to a cookie exchange where we take 8 dozen cookies. If I take these, it's 96 x 2 192 cookies, which
always make me happy since you know how I love big numbers.......
These sound complicated but are really quite easy and look great and taste even better....crispy and chocolatey.
