Preheat oven to 300*F. In a medium bowl combine
flour, soda, salt and orange peel. Mix well and set
aside. In a large bowl blend sugars with electric
mixer at medium speed. Add butter and beat to form a
grainy paste, scraping sides of bowl as needed. Add
eggs and orange extract, and beat at medium speed
until light and fluffy. Add the flour mixture and
chopped chocolate. Blend on low speed just until
mixed. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto ungreased
cookie sheets, 1 1/2 inches apart. Bake for 22-24
minutes until cookies are slightly brown along the
edges. Transfer cookies immediately to a cool surface.
