These treats are a great biscuit tin filler. You can even add chopped nuts or dried fruit instead of chocolate, or use different shaped cutters, if you want to have fun with them

What you'll need
  • 115g unsalted butter, softened
  • 50g caster sugar
  • 175g plain flour
  • 1 tsp Dr. Oetker Madagascan Vanilla Extract
  • 100g Dr. Oetker Milk Chocolate Chunks
Method

1.  Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Line a large baking tray with baking parchment. In a bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until soft and creamy. Add the flour, a pinch of salt, the Dr. Oetker Madagascan Vanilla Extract and Dr. Oetker Milk Chocolate Chunks, then stir until the mixture forms a firm dough.

Tip from Dr. Oetker
You don’t have to add the chocolate chips, you can leave plain or add some chopped nuts or dried fruit.

2.  Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently until smooth. Roll it out to a thickness of 1cm, then using a 6cm round cutter, stamp out 15 rounds, re-rolling as necessary. Arrange on the baking tray, spaced slightly apart, then prick the tops with a fork and chill for 30 mins.

Tip from Dr. Oetker
Cut out different shapes using different shaped cutters for some fun shaped biscuits.

3.  Once chilled, bake for 15-18 mins until lightly golden. Allow to cool for 5 mins then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before enjoying.
