Chocolate Dipped Shortbread - cooking recipe

250 g unsalted butter

1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon vanilla essence
100 g chocolate (white, dark or milk or a bit of each melted)

Preheat oven to 170C (fan forced) about 185/190C for conventional.
Cream butter and caster sugar together until fluffy.
Toss in the flour, baking powder and vanilla essence and mix till combined.
Place spoonfulls of mixture onto a lined baking tray and lightly press with a fork to flatten a little if you like.
Bake in oven fir 15 to 20 minutes (my friend set hers for 12 minutes and kept a check from then - her oven tends to be hot - and reconed they were perfect at 16 to 18 minutes - won't disagree with her on that).
Allow to cool and then drizzle over with the melted chocolate of choice.
