Preheat oven to 350 F. Stir together the cream and sugar. Stir in the nuts, orange peel, and the flour. On a cookie sheet lined with baking parchment or a Silpat, drop the batter onto it by the teaspoonful, spacing well apart as the batter spreads. Bake for 10-15 minutes, though watching carefully as these cookies burn easily! Let cool on the cookie sheet for about 10 minutes, then move to a cooking rack to cool completely. When cooled, spread one cookie with chocolate, and sandwich with another cookie.
melt together chocolate and cream over low heat in a double boiler. When both are thoroughly incorporated, let cool before spreading over cookies. The chocolate ganache is optional. These cookies stand well on their own, unadorned.
