2. Add the rest of ingredients, except flour & beat in.
3. Now add in a little flour at a time to make a soft dough, adding as needed, binding by hand.
4. Roll out in balls and press with fork, OR roll gently between two sheets of wax wrap and use cutters (do not roll dough too thin so you may lift easily), OR pipe through biscuit nozzles.
*I use a 6 point star biscuit nozzle to pipe circles.*
5. Bake in a preheated oven at 160°C for 15min.
6. Allow to cool.
7. Dip in melted chocolate and sprinkle nibs.
8. Leave to set & store in airtight containers.
