ANZAC Biscuits :)

So, as usual I am cooking on a Sunday arvo. Today I decided to make ANZAC biscuits. I used a recipe from one of my mum's cookbooks, called 'Lady Flo Bjelke-Petersen's Classic Country Collection'. It's a really old but well-used book in our house. The recipe is the ANZAC biscuits.
Here's  how I made them...

Ingredients:
- 125g butter
- 1 desert spoon of golden syrup
- 1 heaped teaspoon of baking soda
- 1 1/2 cups of rolled oats
- 1 cup of self-raising flour
- 1 cup of sugar
- 1 cup of desiccated coconut
- Pinch of salt
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional, I chose not to add these)


How To Make It:
1. Preheat oven to about 180 degrees Celsius (fan-forced)
2. Line a baking tray with baking paper, or grease it
3. Put butter, golden syrup and baking soda into a small saucepan, and, over medium-high heat, stir until butter has melted. Set aside
4. In a large bowl, mix oats, self-raising flour, sugar, coconut, nuts, and salt.
5. Add in the melted ingredients to the dry ones, and mix well until fully combined
6. Mix in unbeaten egg
7. Knead mixture for about 5 minutes (make sure your hands are clean!)
8. Roll into small balls, and evenly space the balls apart on the tray (these really spread so be careful!)
9. Put into the oven and bake for about 15 minutes, or until the cookies are golden-brown and not super-squishy.

 Of course little chicken nugget helped me.....

Fresh out of the oven!

YUM!!!!!
