Recipe: Chocolate Oat Biscuits.

It's that time of year again, Bake Off is back. We literally can't watch GBBO without wanting baked goods to eat alongside it, so we thought we'd follow this weeks theme and made some biscuits to munch whilst we watched! Not going to lie, these super more-ish biscuits are pretty showstopping, they have a good snap and the chocolate on top gives them a perfect finish!

Ingredients:

140g caster sugar

140g butter

140g self raising flour

110g oats

1 tbsp milk

2 tsp golden syrup

1 tsp bicarbonate of soda

100g milk chocolate

Preheat the oven to 150C.
Line a baking tray (or 2) with baking paper.

Cream the butter and caster sugar together until fluffy. Beat in the milk, bicarbonate of soda, and golden syrup until mixed well.

Fold in the flour and oats making sure everything is well incorporated.

Roll the mixture into small balls - there should be about 16 - 20 depending on how big you want your biscuits!

Place the balls on the baking sheet. Make sure they are well spread out, as they will expand!



Bake in the centre of the oven for 25 minutes. They should be a nice golden brown colour.

Leave the biscuits to cool on a wire rack.

Now it's time to melt your chocolate! Break your chocolate into small pieces and place in a glass bowl. Put the bowl over a pan of simmering water.
Stir the chocolate as it melts to ensure it doesn't burn or clump.

Once all the pieces have fully melted, turn off the heat and take your bowl off the pan.
While the chocolate is still liquid, dip each of your biscuits into the chocolate. Make sure you get a nice thick coating on the bottom! Place the chocolate dipped biscuits on a plate and put in the fridge so the chocolate sets quickly.

Once the chocolate is set, they're ready to go.
They're perfect to have with a cup of tea, and are so easy to get through while watching GBBO!
Enjoy!
