Preheat a pan on the flame.
Add all the dry ingredients and mix well.
Then add orange essence, melted butter and orange juice as required to make a dough. Do not knead the dough too much
Add 1/2 amount of choco chips to the dough. Keep it covered in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
Divide the dough equally, form balls and give shape of your choice. I kept it simple round shaped cookies.
Grease an aluminium container, place the cookies on it leaving enough space between the cookies.
Sprinkle remaining choco chips on the top of the cookies. Then place the container inside the pan. Cover it with heavy lid.
Bake the cookies for 15 minutes on low flame.
Remove the Orange Velvet Cookies gently and keep it to cool down. The cookies will be soft but once it cools it will become crisp. Enjoy with a cup of tea/coffee.
