THE INGREDIENTS
75g /3oz dark chocolate

100g / 4oz ground almonds
75g / 3oz caster sugar
2 egg whites
1 lemon
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

COOKING METHOD

YOU - Finely chop or grate the dark chocolate. We cheated and used a food blender. Grate the rind of the lemon. Turn the oven on now to 170°C / 325°F / Gas Mark 3. Line a baking tray with non-stick baking paper.
		YOUR CHILD - Add the chocolate, grated lemon rind, ground almonds and cinnamon to largish bowl and mix the ingredients with a spoon. YOU - whisk the egg whites until they turn stiff.
YOUR CHILD - Add the sugar to the whisked eggs, a tablespoon at a time while the adult continues to whisk the mixture. Add the chocolate mixture into the egg whites and stir in well.
		YOUR CHILD and YOU - take a small amount of the mixture, a tablespoons worth, and coat it in the remaining sugar. As you coat it, roll it roughly into a ball. Gently press it into a tablespoon to form a paw shape.
Bake the biscuits in the oven for 15 minutes. Remove and place them on a rack to cool. Melt the remaining half of the chocolate in a bowl placed in hot water. YOUR CHILD - Dip the cooked biscuits in the warm chocolate.

The chocolate can take some time to solidify, so if you are in a hurry put them in the fridge for 20 minutes.
