Anzac Biscuits!


After arriving home from a three week long holiday (yes, people, be jealous!), I decided to mark the occasion by baking something native to the country we visited. Okay, I also chose to bake this biscuit because it is really quick and I was really jet-lagged! :)

From Wikipedia, "an Anzac biscuit is a sweet biscuit popular in Australia and New Zealand, made using oats, flour, desiccated coconut, sugar, butter, golden syrup, bicarbonate of soda boiling water. Anzac biscuits have long been associated with the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) established in World War I. It has been claimed the biscuits were sent by wives to soldiers abroad because the ingredients do not spoil easily and the biscuits kept well during naval transportation."

These biscuits are really yummy and 60 biscuits were finished in two days!

Can you guess where we went for our holiday?
