Fun Chocolate Moustache Biscuits Recipe for Families in Bali

Prepare the Dough:

In a large mixing bowl, combine 100g all-purpose flour, 25g cocoa powder, 50g sugar, and 1 tbsp shredded coconut. Stir to mix evenly.

Add 50g softened coconut oil and 1 tsp lime zest for a tropical twist. Using your fingertips, rub the coconut oil into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.

Add 1 egg yolk and mix until the dough comes together. If the dough feels dry, add a teaspoon of water at a time until it holds.

Shape the dough into a ball, wrap in cling film, and refrigerate for 20–30 minutes to firm up.

Roll and Shape the Dough:

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the chilled dough to a thickness of about 1/2 cm.

Use a moustache-shaped cookie cutter to create fun designs. If you don’t have a cutter, use a knife to freehand simple shapes.

Bake the Biscuits:

Place the cut shapes onto a parchment-lined baking tray, leaving some space between each biscuit.

Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes. The biscuits should feel firm to the touch but not hard.

Allow them to cool on the tray for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Decorate the Biscuits:

Melt 50g dark chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler. Stir until smooth.

Dip the ends of each biscuit into the melted chocolate or drizzle it over the top. Before the chocolate sets, sprinkle with shredded coconut or colorful sprinkles for a festive touch.

Place the decorated biscuits on a lined tray and refrigerate for 10 minutes to set the chocolate.
