The best recipe for double chocolate biscuits must obviously contain a double dose of chocolate. These soft-baked, thick and crumbly double American chocolate biscuits are rich and pudding-like, with a juicy centre, slightly crispy edges and a multitude of melted chocolate chunks in each glorious mouthful.
