A classic now with a tasty twist!

MAKES: 20 biscuits

TIME:  45 minutes

INGREDIENTS

FOR SHORTBREAD BISCUIT: 

– 1/2 cup dairy free butter
– 1/3 cup maple syrup
– 2 cups of plain flour
– 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
– Pinch of salt

– 1 bar of Smooth Superfoodio Peanut Butter Chocolate 

METHOD

1. Preheat the oven to 175°C.
2. Place the butter into a large mixing bowl and mix until light and fluffy.
3. Add the maple syrup, vanilla extract and salt and mix until combined.
4. Add in the flour and mix. You can use your hands to mix the dough together until a ball has formed.
5. If the dough is too sticky add 1 tbsp of flour at a time until the right consistency is formed. Alternatively, if the dough is too dry add 1 tbsp of maple syrup.
6. Roll out the dough (1/2″ thickness) and then use a biscuit cutter (shape of choice) to cut out shapes. Place the biscuits onto a tray lined with baking paper with enough space in between for them to expand.
7.  Bake for 15 minutes (until the edges become slightly golden)
8. Using the double boiler method, melt 1 bar of Superfoodio Peanut Butter Smooth Chocolate.
9. Once the biscuits have cooled dip one half into the chocolate and leave to dry on a wire rack.
