Stem ginger shortbread dunked in dark chocolate

This is a great recipe from The Great British Bake Off How To Bake. I've made these biscuits a few times without the chocolate (as per the recipe) and they're amazing - my housemate's a big fan, but I suspect that making them in the run-up to her wedding possibly wasn't the most helpful thing to do!

I wondered what they'd be like dunked in dark chocolate, given that dark chocolate and ginger is a fairly common flavour combination. My conclusion? They're pretty good! The real payoff comes when you hit a lump of ginger, and in fact I'd be inclined to up the spice content next time.

The chocolate is Green & Black's Dark 70% - organic and fair trade!
