1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the chocolate and mix until well incorporated. Add the flour and mix until a dough is formed.
2. Roll out the dough to a thickness of 3 cm between two pieces of baking paper. Cut out stars in different sizes using cookie cutters, then chill for 30 minutes.
3. Bake for 20 minutes, allow to cool. Transfer to a cooling rack placed over a baking tray.
4. Once cool, pour over the melted dark chocolate. Bang the rack on the counter so the chocolate settles, then chill for 10 minutes until set.
