Cornflake Biscuits

Makes 14




Get This -

125g butter, at room temperature
 100g (1/2 cup) caster sugar
 1 egg
 150g (1 cup) self-raising flour
 Pinch salt
 60g (2 cups) cornflakes, crushed slightly



Do This -


  1. Preheat the oven to 180C/160C fan forced. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper.
  2. Use electric beaters to beat the butter and sugar in a bowl until pale and creamy. Beat in the egg. Fold in the flour and salt and mix until well combined.
  3. Place the cornflakes in a bowl. Spoon slightly heaped tablespoonfuls of the butter mixture into the cornflakes. Toss the mixture gently in the cornflakes to coat and form balls.
  4. Place the balls, 8cm apart to allow room for spreading, on the prepared tray. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden. Cool the biscuits for 10 minutes on the trays before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Anzac Biscuits

Grandma made some of these on the weekend and the kids loved them so much we had to make our own!




Makes about 24

Get This -

1 1/4 cups plain flour, sifted
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup caster sugar
3/4 cup desiccated coconut
2 tablespoons golden syrup or treacle
150g unsalted butter, chopped
1/2 teaspoon bicarb soda


Do This -

  1. Preheat oven to 170°C.
  2. Place the flour, oats, sugar and coconut in a large bowl and stir to combine.
  3. In a small saucepan place the golden syrup and butter and stir over low heat until the butter has fully melted.
  4. Mix the bicarb soda with 1 1/2 tablespoons water and add to the golden syrup mixture. It will bubble whilst you are stirring together so remove from the heat.
  5. Pour into the dry ingredients and mix together until fully combined.
  6. Roll tablespoonfuls of mixture into balls and place on baking trays lined with non stick baking paper, pressing down on the tops to flatten slightly.
  7. Bake for 12 minutes or until golden brown.
