Chelsea - These mixed up beautifully and are very yummy.  Another family favourite I am sure. Thanks Cookie!  We really love these.

KatrnH -  the 2 boys decided they wanted to cook.  So DS4 and DS2 made these (with only a little help from me). A good chunk of the dough got eaten raw and the rest got rolled into very weird looking shaped biscuits - but they are delicious and the boys are so proud of them!  A very forgiving recipe.

Amy - I used Nuttelex instead of butter, craisins instead of sultanas and used a mixture of dark and white chocolate chips. Also used desiccated coconut because I didn't have any shredded.They smell amazing and are beautiful biscuits.

Nice chunky looking cookie, Cookie

mmn mmn I often wonder why people would want to buy a packet of biscuits when they can have something yummy like this, and I find that you have to just keep eating through the packet, whereas homemade biccies you can have one or two and they are more filling. going to give these a go. thanks cookie

Is it SR flour Cookie? I have the ingredients in the bowl ready to mix and just realised that there is no rising agent.  I will throw in a tsp of baking powder in anyway.

Oh Chelsea I'm so sorry. It is SR flour. I'll fix the recipe.  You can also use cranberries instead of sultanas. So much for checking the recipe.

Pop in where to add the coconut and oats too.

OMG I must have been having a seniors day, not a moment. I'm so glad you liked them Chelsea after all that.

Normally I wouldn't have noticed Cookie, but I was three hours into writing and proof reading school reports.  I was in the zone!

We really love these.  Hubby never takes biscuits to work with him but I noticed him grabbing a couple of these on his way out this morning.

Ooh reports. I quite understand, when I proof read mine I had to 'get in to that special zone' as I hated handing them in with ANY errors. (before computer reports)

Wet, cold and windy afternoon here, and the 2 boys decided they wanted to cook.  So DS4 and DS2 made these (with only a little help from me  )   A good chunk of the dough got eaten raw, and the rest got rolled into very weird looking shaped biscuits - but they are delicious, and the boys are so proud of them!  A very forgiving recipe

I agree with your boys. The raw dough is nice.

Good to see you training them so young Karen, won't long and you can sit back and let them cook tea for you.  What a cutie, so focused on his job too.

Just pulled these out of the oven

I used Nuttelex instead of butter, craisins instead of sultanas, and used a mixture of dark and white chocolate chips. Also used desiccated coconut because I didn't have any shredded

Great Amy.

And here are the photos

Mum was half-asleep in her chair when SD gave her one, but she was so keen to tell me how good they were that she sent me a text message even though I was just a couple of rooms away in my bedroom

They must be pretty darn good! Thanks for the recipe Cookie
