Yogurt and chocolate biscuits

I have found this recipe in a book that has almost the age of my mother. As usually, I couldn't resist to adapt it with the available ingredients. My daughter was delighted to cut all the biscuits and of course ... to eat a big part of them :)

Ingredients:

250g yogurt
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1 tablespoon of sugar
1 teaspoon almond essence
1 teaspoon baking soda (sodium bicarbonate)
a pinch of salt
350g all purpose flour
100g melted chocolate

Directions:

Using a standing mixer, mix the yogurt with oil and sugar until it becomes creamy.
Add essence, baking soda, salt and mix.
Add the flour slowly and mix until you obtain a dough.
Stretch the dough on a floured board using a rolling pin. (4-5mm thick).
Cut the dough using biscuits cutters.
Lay the biscuits on a silicon sheet on the bottom of a tray.
Bake them in the preheated oven at 200ºC for 20 minutes.
Let them cool on a rack.
Deep the biscuits by half in melted chocolate and put them back on the silicone sheet for the chocolate to cool.
