1

Heat the oven to 325°F (160°C). Remove the dough from the package and transfer to a clean work surface. Knead in the flour and orange peel until well combined.
2

Form the dough into two 10 x 1-inch (25 x 2.5 cm) logs on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Press to flatten dough to 2-inches (5 cm) in width. Brush tops with milk.
3

Sprinkle evenly with oats and pat down gently. Bake for 25 minutes or until tops are just turning golden.
4

Cool on the baking sheet until the logs can be handled; transfer to a cutting board. Slice into 1/2-inch (1 cm) thick slices using a serrated knife.
5

Lay cut-side-down on parchment paper-lined baking sheets. Return to the oven for 6 minutes. Turn over and bake for 6 minutes more or until lightly browned and crisp.
6

Cool completely on a rack. Drizzle with melted chocolate (if using).
