Viennese fingers


Viennese fingers, viennese fingers...hmmm, nope, can't think of anything clever with this. Except that it looks like a finger with black nails??? For all you people who are thinking of weird things right now, STOP thinking anything disgusting! Anyway, let's crack on with this.

Ingredients (20-25 biscuits)
  1. 100g unsalted butter
  2. 30g icing sugar
  3. 110g plain flour
  4. 50g plain chocolate
  • Weigh out butter and let it warm up to room temperature, this will soften the butter 
  • Once butter is soft, pre-heat oven to 180 degrees 
  • Mix in the icing sugar into the butter until it becomes pale and fluffy
  • Sift in the flour and mix until it is all combined
  • Pipe the mixture into whatever shape you want onto a piece of baking parchment 
  • Bake for 12-20 minutes, the surface should be golden brown 
  • Take it out of the oven to cool. This biscuit is quite crumbly so be gentle when you take it out of the oven
  • Once biscuits have cooled, melt chocolate over simmering water 
  • Dip one end of the biscuit into the chocolate and magic! Here's your viennese fingers!
