Bakery Biscuit

My mom used to prepare these biscuits often. I love this and my daughter also likes these biscuits. Whenever we go to the bakery, she asks for these biscuits. Yesterday when I was thinking of a recipe to send for the Kid's Delight event guest hosted by Champa, I remembered this biscuit. I called my mom today, got hold of the recipe and prepared it. Though it is not as tasty as my mom's preparation, my hubby and daughter liked it.I am sending this as an entry to Kid's Delight-Restaurant Creation started by Srivalli and hosted by Champa. The biscuits my mom used to make are pure white and melts in the mouth. As my daughter likes chocolate, I tried out this version. While baking, remove the biscuits from oven when the colour of the biscuits starts changing at the bottom. While removing they will be very soft, but once cool they will become firm.
