     1 ts Baking powder
     1 ts Ground cinnamon

     2 tb Extra-virgin olive oil
     2 tb Unsalted butter

   1/4 c  Whole milk
     2 tb Dark rum
     1 lg Egg; room temperature

MMMMM---------------------------ICING--------------------------------
 1 1/2 c  Semisweet chocolate chips;
          - such as Ghirardelli (9 oz)
   1/4 c  Heavy cream

 Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the
 oven to 350 F/175 C.

 Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone
 liners.

 FOR THE COOKIES: In a food processor, pulse together the
 flours, cocoa powder, baking powder, cinnamon, salt,
 nutmeg and the lemon and orange zests. Add the olive oil
 and butter and pulse until blended.

 In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, milk, rum and
 egg until smooth. Gradually stir the flour mixture into
 the egg mixture until a stiff dough forms. With damp
 fingers, shape the dough into 1" balls and place about 1"
 apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake until the
 cookies are firm to the touch, 10 to 11 minutes. Cool for
 10 minutes, then transfer the cookies to wire racks to
 cool completely, about 15 more minutes.

 FOR THE ICING: Put the chocolate chips and cream in a
 heatproof medium bowl and place the bowl over a pan of
 barely simmering water. Stir frequently until the
 chocolate has melted and the mixture is smooth.

 Dip the cookies halfway into the icing, then return them
 to the racks and let set at room temperature until firm,
 1-1/2 to 2 hours.
