Critical Success Points

  • Achieving a smooth, glossy base dough without over‑mixing.
  • Keeping each flavored dough chilled for at least 2 hours before rolling.
  • Rolling dough to a uniform 3‑4 mm thickness for even baking.
  • Baking until lightly golden; over‑baking makes biscuits too hard.
  • Melted chocolate temperature control for clean drizzles.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle hot oven and hot melted chocolate with oven mitts.
  • Use a sharp knife or cutter carefully to avoid cuts.
  • Do not leave children unattended near hot appliances.
