Ingredients (makes 30 )

  • 250g butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup cocoa
  • 1 2/3 cups plain flour
  • 2 1/2 cups cornflakes
  • Walnuts, to decorate (30)
  • 150g Nutella (5g per biscuit)

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 180C/160C fan-forced. Line 2 large baking trays with baking paper.
  2. Use an electric mixer to beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the cocoa and flour. Beat on low speed until combined. Next stir in the cornflakes gently.
  3. Roll mixture into balls, approx a tablespoon in size. Flatten a little. Place onto the trays, leaving room for them to spread during baking, approx 4cms apart.
  4. Bake for 15 mins or until just firm. It is important to swap the trays on shelves halfway to ensure even cooking. Cool completely on a cooling rack.
  5. Once the biscuits are completely cool, spread approx 5g of Nutella over the biscuit and top with a walnut.

  • Oh these sound very scrummy.
    The recipie kind of reminds me of something that my Mum used to make when I was a child but she also had peanuts included in the recipie and the dob of chocolate on the top was hard. I would eat the biscuit and always leave the chocolate bit till last.
