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.

Good recipe You can use 2 cups of cornflakes or 1 cup of cornflakes and 1 cup of crushed wet-bix. You can kneed the dough at the end with your hands for it to com3 together quickly.

I like this recipe very easy and quick to make but it says serves 30? Not likely. I made the recipe as it says and I weighted every ball to 30grams and I only got 18. Any smaller and they would be tiny! I recommend this recipe but If you want a decent sized biscuit double the recipe.

I love this recipe use it all the time about to make a batch now!
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.
This is my absolute go-to recipe for the perfect Afghan biscuit! My 13yr old absolutely loves these. Easy and delicious!
