Now, one of my ABSOLUTE favourite things to eat in this world, is chocolate fingers. It is also one of those things that my lil one has never tried (I don;t know about anywhere else in the world, but here in Cyprus, you can't find non dairy chocolate fingers), so i put my thinking cap on, and here we go! :) first the biscuit- take 260g plain flour and 2 tsp of baking powder, mix, then rub in 120g butter. It should end up looking like this:Now add 100g sugar , 1 egg, and approx 2 tbsp of water, so that it comes together in a nice soft dough.
Tear small pieces off, and winkle them between your fingers to make small sausages. Place on greaseproof paper on a cookie sheet, and into the preheated oven at 175C for 15 minutes (or until the ends of the fingers start to brown.)
Take out of the oven and allow to cool. Then melt your chocolate (i put mine into the microwave for about 30 seconds) and dip each of the fingers into the chocolate.
Lay them out again on the greaseproof paper, and place into the fridge to harden the chocolate up.
If you are living in a more temperate clime, you might be able to keep these in a biscuit tin, but here we have to keep them in the fridge!
And the best bit of the whole process? The children eating the leftover melted chocolate :D
