    Drizzle with dark chocolate. Chill for 5 minutes until chocolate sets. Drizzle with white chocolate. Chill for 5 minutes. Drizzle with milk chocolate. Chill until chocolate sets.

Notes

Have the butter at room temperature for easier creaming. The rice flour adds to the "shortness" or crumbliness of the biscuits. If you don't have any, use cornflour.
