Salty pretzel choc-chunk shortbread

By Abigail Donnelly

Serves 10–12

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 30 minutes, plus 1 hour’s chilling time

Cooking Time 20 minutes

Ingredients

150 g Woolworths salted pretzel snack
250 g butter, softened
120 g icing sugar
220 g flour, plus extra for rolling (if making squares)
110 g dark chocolate, broken into squares

Method

1. Blend the pretzels in batches until they are the texture of flour. Place in a large bowl.

2. Add the butter, icing sugar and flour and mix until smooth. Shape the dough into balls and place on a greased or lined baking tray. Flatten slightly using the back of a teaspoon. Chill for 1 hour until firm.

3. Preheat the oven to 160°C. Place a square of chocolate into the middle of each piece of dough. Bake for 20 minutes. Allow to cool before serving.

Cook’s note: If you prefer to make squares, carefully roll out the dough on a floured surface. Cut into squares and bake.
