Ingredients

Chocolate Biscuits:

125 grams butter
¼ cup castor sugar
1 cup self raising flour
¼ cup powdered drinking chocolate
½ cup chocolate chips

Chocolate Biscuits Icing:

250g dark cooking chocolate
250ml thickened cream

Instructions

Chocolate Biscuits:

Preheat oven to 190℃ (375℉).
Chop dark cooking chocolate into smallish pieces.
Start by Creaming butter and sugar together.
Sift flour into creamed mixture then add drinking chocolate and chocolate chips.
Stir and mix together.
Roll into 2 cm balls and place on a greased cooking sheet with room to spread.
Flatten each ball with a fork dipped in cold water. Do not crisscross.
Bake in preheated oven for 7 to 8 minutes.
Remove from heat and set aside to cool down before adding icing.

Chocolate Biscuits Icing:

Chop the chocolate and place in a mixing bowl.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, carefully heat the cream.
Bring to a Simmer, don't let it boil.
Remove from heat then pour the chocolate in and stir until smooth.

To finish:

When chocolate biscuits are cool, Spread the icing on the top using a knife.
(Sort of like thickly buttering a slice of bread.)

Notes

Important!

Do not overcook as they can become very dry.
Do not leave your icing sitting for too long before using.
The longer you leave it, the more it sets and will become hard to spread.
