Method

Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Line two flat trays with baking paper.
Beat margarine and sugar with a wooden spoon until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla and beat again.
Add flour and stir well, then fold through the crushed Weet-Bix™.
Place rounded tablespoons of the dough onto the prepared trays, leaving room for spreading. Lightly press a wet finger into the centre of each biscuit, then place a chocolate button in the indentation.
Bake for 8 minutes until golden. Cool on tray for a minute before transferring to a rack to cool completely.
