Method

Preheat the oven to 190 ºC and oil a few baking sheets or spray with non-stick spray. Line with baking paper. Place all the ingredients, except the chopped chocolate and nuts, in a mixing bowl and mix well (or blend in an electric blender) to form a stiff dough. Add the chopped chocolate and nuts and mix. Cover and allow to stand for at least an hour. Roll the dough into fairly small balls and flatten slightly. Arrange on the baking sheet, leaving enough space between each to allow for spreading. Bake for about 15 minutes until firm on the sides but still slightly soft in the centre. Serve lukewarm. Makes 70 cookies.

Tip of the day

Great dessert trick
Paint paper muffin cups with melted bittersweet chocolate; chill until firm, then peel off the paper. Fill the chocolate dessert cups with Instant Chocolate Mousse (or fresh fruit) and top with a dollop of sweetened whipped cream. Serve on a chilled dessert plate so the chocolate stays cold and the cups hold their shape.
