How to Make Fluffy Chocolate Orange Cookies

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened margarine and ¾ cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in 1 large egg until well combined.
Stir in 2 tablespoons finely grated orange rind and 2 tablespoons of fresh orange juice.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon ground cloves.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Stir in 1 ½ cups chocolate chips.
Drop rounded teaspoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
