Choc Chunk Shortbread Biscuits 🍪
- 400g plain flour
- 100g caster sugar
- 250g butter
- 150g dark or milk chocolate, roughly chopped
- Pinch sea salt
In a large mixing bowl, rub the flour, sugar and butter together until it resembles breadcrumbs, then press together with your hands until it starts to form a dough. Add the chocolate and salt and mix it through with your hands until well combined.
Tip out the dough onto a lightly flowered surface and bring it together with your hands. Roll it into a sausage shape, then cover and chill for 30 minutes. Chilling will make it easier to cut, and stop the cookie dough spreading out too much as it bakes. If you are short on time, however, you can skip this step.
Remove the dough from the fridge and slice it into circles, any thickness you like. Place onto a lined baking tray and bake at 160°C for 15 - 25 minutes, or until slightly golden on top. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the tray before carefully transferring them to a plate.
