These afghan biscuits are creamy, chocolatey and crunchy - they could almost be the definition of perfection! Always a big hit with the kids and, of course, grown-ups too.

Yummy! Changed it up a little... Did 1/2 cup cocoa and used 2 tbls of hot strong black coffee instead of the vanilla essence... Super rich, chocolaty and yummy. Tip: Don't push the cookie dough down too much as the balls of dough will expand and spread when cooking.

Soooo popular with my friends & the children next door. I used the crushed weetbix they make the biscuit more shortbread textured. This recipe is an oldie but a goody.

This recipe is great I usually bake it for Christmas and they are all gone less then 5 minutes! They are delicious.
Preheat oven to 180°C bake. Line two large baking trays with baking paper.
In a large bowl, beat butter, Chelsea Caster Sugar or Chelsea Organic Raw Sugar and vanilla until light and fluffy.
Sift in the flour and cocoa. Stir until mostly combined, then add the cornflakes and mix well.
Roll tablespoons of mixture into balls and place on prepared trays. Press down lightly with a fork.
Bake for 15-20 minutes, until biscuits are just firm to the touch. Leave on trays for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Icing Sift Chelsea Icing Sugar and cocoa powder into a bowl. Add butter and 1 tablespoon boiling water at a time, mixing well and adding more hot water as required until icing is a spreadable consistency. Ice cooled biscuits and decorate with walnut halves, if desired.
So yum! It was my first time making them, and I'm glad I did! Will definitely be adding these to the rotation of my regular bakes!
