Chocolate Powder- 1 tbsp

Vanilla Essence- 1 tsp

Dark Chocolate chopped – 1/2 cup

3. Sieve together the all purpose flour, oats baking powder, cocoa powder, chocolate powder, salt and baking soda.

4. Now add sieved dry ingredients and vanilla essence to the beaten butter and mix using the spatula. Fold in the chopped chocolate using a spatula. Once incorporated use your hands and knead slightly to form a dough. Do not knead too hard just enough to form a dough. If you feel your dough has become too hard add the water one tbsp at a time to loosen it. The dough should not be too loose it should be hard in consistency.

5. Cover the dough and keep it too chill in the fridge for an hour. After an hour take out the dough it will be stiff and ready.

6. Make small round balls out of the dough (You can take measure of 1 tbsp of the dough to make one ball) flatten it a little in disc shape.
