How to Make Chocolate Mice Aussie Style

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking tray with baking paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Stir in the chocolate chips and chopped nuts.
Roll the dough into small balls (approximately 1 inch in diameter).
Place the chocolate balls onto the prepared baking tray, leaving some space between each.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft.
Remove from the oven and let cool completely on the baking tray.
Once cooled, melt the dark chocolate. Dip the tail end of each chocolate ball into the melted chocolate to create a 'tail'.
Use mini chocolate chips or raisins for eyes.
Let the chocolate set before serving. Enjoy your adorable Chocolate Mice!
