Chocolate Dipped Viennese Biscuits

These yummy scrummy Viennese biscuits took no time at all and  i'm actually amazed as many as that made it to the choc dipping stage with my toddler around!!
Melt in your mouth and not too dry.  I often find the texture a little on the dry side especially when they are so thick.  These were just a quick win.  

I am a lover of honest, dark chocolate :-)

Ingredients

100g self raising flour
100g butter
25g caster sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
100g dark or milk chocolate

You will also need a piping bag and star shaped nozzle (size 7) or just a round nozzle if you prefer.

Preheat the oven to 170C

Line 2 baking sheets with greaseproof paper or you can use the Silicone mats

Cream together the butter, sugar and vanilla extract until smooth

Add the flour and mix until a nice dough is formed.  

Place mixture into piping bag and pipe directly onto the baking sheets, 12-15 fingers. 

Bake for 12-15minutes until they are golden around the edges.  Leave to cool for a few minutes and place onto a wire rack.

Melt the chocolate in the microwave for 60-90 seconds until it is completely melted.

Dip in chocolate as desired.  Leave to cool on the baking sheets.
