Ingredients
- 150 g Unsalted butter
- 50 g Granulated erythritol
- 175 g Whole wheat flour
- 3 tbsp Cocoa powder
- 50 g Cornflakes
- 100 g Dark chocolate (sugar-free, melted)
- 12 pieces Walnut halves
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated erythritol until smooth and well combined.
Step 3
Sift in the cocoa powder and whole wheat flour, then mix gently to form a dough.
Step 4
Fold in the cornflakes carefully to ensure they are evenly distributed without crushing them completely.
Step 5
Take tablespoons of the mixture and shape them into small balls, then place them onto the prepared baking tray, leaving some space between each biscuit.
Step 6
Flatten each ball slightly with your hand or a spoon. Make a small indent in the center of each biscuit.
Step 7
Bake the biscuits for 15 minutes or until they are firm to the touch.
Step 8
Remove the tray from the oven and allow the biscuits to cool slightly on the tray before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Once the biscuits are cooled, top each with a small dollop of the melted sugar-free dark chocolate and press a walnut half into it.
Step 10
Allow the chocolate to set before serving.
