MAKE YOUR OWN CHOCOLATE WHEATIES


These's biscuits are better than the original ones  you get at Coles or Woolies.

90g Butter, softened
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 egg
1/4 cup desiccated coconut
1/3 cup wheat germ
2/3 wholemeal plain flour
1/2 cup white self raising flour
185g dark chocolate

Beat butter and sugar in bowl with electric mixer until smooth, add the egg and beat until combined.  Stir in the coconut, wheat germ and sifted flours.

Roll dough between 2 sheets of baking paper until 5mm thick.  Play on a tray lined with baking paper, refridgerate for 30 minutes

Preheat oven to 180c.  Line oven trays with baking paper.

Using a  6cm round cutter, cut out rounds from dough and place them 2.5cm apart of trays.  Bake for 12-15 mins until light brown. Cool on trays.

Melt chocolate in microwave till smooth, spread wheaties with chocolate and mark with a fork (as picture) stand at room temperature until set, or if hot weather leave in the fridge to set.
