Instructions
- In a bowl, cream the soft butter with the sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg, then the flour mixed with the baking powder, and work into a soft dough.
- Roll small balls about the size of a walnut and flatten them slightly.
- Place them on a tray lined with baking paper and bake at 170 °C for 10 minutes, until just golden.
- Let the biscuits cool completely on a rack.
- Melt the white and dark chocolate separately over a bain-marie, adding a spoonful of oil to each.
- Dip half of each biscuit in the white chocolate and the other half in the dark chocolate to recall a panda's coat.
- Let them set at room temperature or in the fridge for 15 minutes before tasting.
Variations and tips
All-dark version. Coat the biscuits entirely in dark chocolate and decorate with white chocolate chips.
