Chocolate Shortbread Drops

Make about 65

Ingredients:

150g dark chocolate, chopped
250g butter, cubed and softened
1/2 cup caster sugar
21/2 cups plain flour
2 tbsp cocoa powder
1 tbsp drinking chocolate

Method:
  1. Preheat the oven to warm 160C. Lightly grease 2 baking trays.
  2. Melt the chocolate in a small bowl over a pan of simmering water. Stir occasionally, until smooth. Leave to cool.
  3. Beat the butter and sugar until light and creamy, add the melted chocolate. Shift the flour into a bowl and gently fold in, but do not over mix.
  4. Drop rounded tsp of the mixture well apart onto the trays, bake for 12-15 mins. Leave on the trays for a few mins before cooling on a wire rack. Repeat with the remaining mixture. Just before serving, sift the combined cocoa and drinking chocolate over the biscuits to dust.
