| 135g | Plain flour |
| 10 g | Cocoa powder |
| ½ tsp | Bicarbonate of soda |

Method
- Pre-heat the oven to 190C.

- Place the tray in the oven for 10 minutes.
- Allow to cool on the tray for 2 minutes before placing the biscuits on a cooling rack to cool completely.
- The biscuits will keep for up to 5 days in an airtight tin.
