+
+This is a basic recipe from which many variants can be created.
+For example, you could add powedered cocoa (4 tsp), honey (4 tsp), or grated chocolate (80 g).
+You may also use mashed fruit, but since it contains much water you would then have to add flour to restore the original consistency of the dough.

+
+## Directions
+
+1. Preheat the oven to 170 °C in static mode.
+2. Create small balls of dough, place them on baking paper and flatten them slightly.
+   They won't rise, so you're deciding here the size of the biscuits.
+3. Cook in the oven.
+   It should take about 45 minutes but it depends on the size and shape of the biscuits, so you would do better to start checking after 30.
