No Christmas or New Year would be the same without these delightful buttery and crisp shortbread biscuits! Plus, they are extremely easy to make and have very few ingredients. They are not low in calories, but they make a delicious treat at special times of the year. This family recipe is a tried and true, and is based on the Be-Ro cookbook recipe.....a real cookery institution in the UK! Shortbread biscuits can be made in a variety of shapes, including being pressed in a decorative wooden Shortbread Mould; when they are made in a round and cut into triangles, they are called "Petticoat Tails" and are a traditional Scottish wedding biscuit. Whatever the shape you decide to use - I have given a few ideas in the recipe - the taste will remain the same.....meltingly light and buttery. These make ideal gifts, and as they are made with butter, they last for quite a while. Pack them up in an attractive box, tin or cellaphane bag and attach a tartan bow and a sprig of heather for a true Scottish feel to them! Happy Hogmanay!

A crunchy cookie flavoured with cardamom, cinnamon and tahini. I created these tahini cardamom cookies especially for Eid (which is this Sunday/Monday depending on the sighting of the moon). This is the third year in a row where I make a cookie recipe to celebrate Eid. A couple of years ago I made my healthified Kleicha/date cookies recipe (which is probably my favourite recipe on the blog to date!) and last year I made another version of cardamom cookies without the tahini and with a few different variations, but still equally as delicious! I used tahini instead of oil to add lots of goodness and flavour making these tahini cardamom cookies oil-free. They’re also vegan (no eggs, milk or butter) …

ಕನ್ನಡ ಆವೃತ್ತಿ If there are kids at home, demand for snacks will obviously be more. This holds good for our house as well and not only the kiddo, we are also snacks lovers! More than deep fried items, we like the baked goodies. This biscuit recipe caught my eyes sometime back while reading a local magazine. I just gave it a try and the biscuits tasted delicious! Original name of this biscuit is 'ANZAC Biscuit'. As I read in Wiki, the name of these biscuits is associated with Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC). During the time of 1st World War, wives of the soldiers were preparing biscuits using flour, rolled oats, desiccated coconut, sugar, etc. They were sending those biscuits to the soldiers which had a good shelf life. There are several ways to prepare these ANZAC biscuits. This recipe was published in a local magazine during the time of ANZAC Day. Original recipe called for Golden Syrup. I have replaced it Honey and it worked out well! Recipe courtesy: Coles Magazine Preparation time: 15 - 20 minutes Baking time: 15 minutes Yield: 25 - 30 biscuits Difficulty level: Medium Ingredients: All purpose flour / Maida - 1 cup (1 cup = 150 gm) Rolled oats - 1 cup Desiccated coconut - 1 cup Butter - 125 gm Brown sugar - 55 gm Caster sugar - 110 gm Honey / Golden syrup - 2 tbsp Bi Carbonate soda - 1/2 tsp Hot water - 1 1/2 tbsp Method: Preheat the oven to 180°C. Transfer the rolled oats into mixie jar and make it a course powder. Combine all purpose flour, rolled oats, desiccated coconut, brown sugar and caster sugar in a mixing bowl and mix it well. Heat the honey and butter together and allow the butter to melt on low flame. Stir it occasionally. Once the butter is completely melted, turn off the flame and keep it aside for cooling down. Mix 1/2 tsp of Bi Carbonate soda with 1 1/2 tbsp hot water. Add it to the melted butter and honey. Fold in the flour mixture into melted butter and mix it nicely. Take tablespoons of mixture and roll them into balls. Pat the dough balls and arrange them on a lined baking tray. Bake the biscuits for 15 minutes and allow to cool.
Whether you like them soft and chewy or with an extra bit of bite!
These melt-in-the mouth biscuits are the winner of this week's food fight.
Custard creams are a classic English biscuit. They are sandwich biscuits with a creamy, buttery and custard flavoured filling. When I made my first attempt at these biscuits they were a bit thick but I asked my boys to taste test them! My older son said they tasted good but my youngest said “No thanks I am more of a Bourbon kind of guy”!!!!! So it looks like I need to develop a recipe for a Bourbon biscuits next. These biscuits are nice and crumbly and melt in your mouth with a buttery custard f

On January 1st our supermarkets start selling Hot Cross Buns. Its ridiculous and I'm totally against purchasing them so many months before Easter, but that gorgeous fresh baked smell hits you as soon as you walk in...and in the trolley they go! Shopping online is even worse because they post photos of warm buns smoothed in melting butter just to make you drool... and in the cart they go! Its a conspiracy targeting the weak willed and I have no self control. ;) Oh and did I mention the flavors? Everything from the traditional bun to luscious Belgian Chocolate and Cherry Buns - come on guys, no one can wait four months to try these! The point to all of this is that by the time Easter rolls around we're tired of them and nobody wants a Hot Cross Bun with their coffee, so I bake a batch of Currant Biscuits instead: These biscuits are also great for a few of my family members who don't like Hot Cross Buns - seriously how can we be related?? And also for the non chocolate lovers. They're super easy to make and they're soft, fragrant and perfect to have for morning or afternoon tea. With chocolate everywhere at this time of year its nice to have something different in the cupboard when visitors pop in because they are probably sick of chocolate too. I don't crave chocolate but man do I crave a soft sweet biscuit all day everyday and these Currant Biscuits certainly hit the spot! ;) I use my favorite foundation biscuit recipe and then I add some spices and currants to give the biscuits that traditional Easter flavor. They are easy to make with simple ingredients that you'll have in the pantry, and they store well in an air tight container for 3-4 days. The biscuit dough is smooth and silky but you do need to work it well to bring it all together. I recommend using your hands because your body heat will soften the butter, making combining the ingredients a whole lot easier. I use a fluted cookie cutter to cut my biscuits but get creative and make bunnies or flowers as well. Before I pop them in the oven I sprinkle the tops with a little granulated sugar. This does add to the sweetness but you can omit the extra sugar and they're still a beautiful biscuit - seriously though, add the sugar! They take ten minutes to bake and then leave them on the trays for another five minutes to continue cooking from the residual heat before cooling them on a wire rack. Here's a fun fact - the word biscuit means twice cooked. Biscuits were baked and then dried out in a warm oven resulting in a crisp hard cracker type biscuit. Softies like these Currant Biscuits are baked until they just start to brown and by allowing them to continue cooking on the trays you achieve this luscious soft biscuit that melts in the mouth. So if you've had your fill of Hot Cross Buns or chocolate already, give these Currant Biscuits a try over Easter. You can download the recipe by clicking the link or right click on the photo below and save it to your computer for later: I hope you enjoy these luscious Currant Biscuits. They are a nice alternative to Hot Cross Buns or chocolate and they're a definite favorite in my house. :) Happy baking :)
During their first venture in the First World War, the Gallipoli campaign, lucky soldiers might receive a parcel from their families containing Soldiers' Biscuits, which became known as the beloved Anzac Biscuit.
