Title: C4 Biscuits - Choc Chip, Coconut and Cranberry.
Post by: busterman on February 18, 2013, 05:25:53 am

I call these C4 Biscuits  - standing for Choc. Chip, Coconut and Cranberry.  They're delicious!

Ingredients:

125g butter - straight out of the fridge and roughly chopped
70g raw sugar
100g dark brown sugar
1 egg
160g SR flour
80g choc. chips
80g coconut - shredded or dessicated
80g craisins - dried cranberries.  Substitute with sultanas or any other dried fruit.


Preheat oven to 180C (160C fan/forced). Line 3 oven trays with baking paper.

Add butter and sugars to TM bowl. Cream until light and fluffy; 1-2 minutes Speed 3.  Add the egg and mix gently together until combined -15 secs on speed 3.
Add remaining ingredients and combine - 8 seconds speed 5 and then 10-15 secs on knead.  Don't over mix - you only need the mixture just combined.

Roll into small balls (about walnut size) and place on trays.  Allow room for the biscuits to spread.  Flatten the balls with your fingers.

Bake for 15 minutes or until golden.  Allow to cool on the trays.

Makes 3 dozen.  :)

CC, they are certainly nice.  I only made 30. Good size for us. I like the buttery crispness.

Gosh I completely missed this recipe and they do look yum.  Think I will bake some while our diet has been lost.
Most ingredients are in the cupboard too.
