Adapted from : Verance's Kitchen

125 gm unsalted butter, soften
40 gm icing sugar (you may adjust the sugar accordingly) 
125 gm potato flour, sifted
80 gm superfine flour, sifted
Some chocolate chips (for the ears)
Some black sesame seeds (for the eyes)

Method:

1. Place the butter & sugar in a mixing bow, beat on medium speed until fluffy & light in color.
2. Stir in the flour, mix well.
3. Form into a soft dough.
4. Cling wrap the dough & chill in the fridge for 1-2 hours (so the shape can hold better).

Shaping:

1. Pre-heat the oven to 140C to150C.(Adjust accordingly to your type oven).
2. Roll the dough into a small ball, I used 10 gm per ball so every ball will be of the same size, the dough will be able to form about 25 - 30 small balls.
3. Roll the remaining dough into mini balls, place 2 of the mini balls on the center top of each ball.
4. Stick on 2 black sesame seeds on the center of each ball to form the eyes.
5. Lastly, stick 2 chocolate chips on each side to form as the ears.
6. Bake in the pre-heated oven for 20-25 minutes.
