Chocolate lace crisps are such a classic and easily identifiable biscuit. The cracked outer layer dusted with icing sugar makes a lovely contrast to the chewy inner layer.
I decided to change this one up a little, giving it a hint of another classic: red velvet.
These are really easy to make. After making the dough, you roll them into little balls and covere them with icing sugar.
They flatten out heaps during baking, do make sure to give these guys plenty of room.
The dark chocolate makes the red colouring really subtle. If you're like a stronger redness, use milk chocolate in this recipe.
