We melt dark chocolate in a bain-marie, or in the microwave very carefully so that it does not burn, stirring every few seconds.
With a knife we cover the base of the cookies with chocolate, and fill the cones with sweets. We put the chocolate biscuit together with the cone that is already filled with sweets and finally we pour the melted chocolate on each witch’s hat.
