Methods

3. On a lightly floured surface roll the dough out to about a 3mm thickness.
4. Cut out circles using a 5cm round biscuit cutter.
5. Place each circle on a greased baking sheet and bake at 190°C/ gas mark 5/ 375°F for about 7 minutes or until the edges start to brown.
6. Transfer to a wire rack and allow to cool.
7. Meanwhile, in a saucepan stir the chocolate over a low heat until melted.
