Anzac biscuits

125 grams butter
1 tablespoon golden syrup
2 tablespoons boiling water
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 cup rolled oats
¾ cup coconut
1 cup flour
1 cup castor sugar
¼ teaspoon salt

Melt butter and stir in golden syrup, boiling water and baking soda.
Add melted butter mixture plus all other ingredients and process till combined.

Place teaspoons onto baking paper on a tray. Allow sufficient space to spread.

Bake 10 – 12 minutes 190 degrees until cooked

Optional, half dip in melted chocolate when cool.

(I'm not sure what Golden Syrup translates as in other countries...it's a light treacle made from sugar cane, a little more runny than honey. One of the Aussie or Kiwi bakers here may know )

D
Molasses (treacle), malted barley syrup or maple syrup will work fine, even honey.

Cup and tablespoon sizes are slightly different around the world but ANZAC biscuits don't need precise measurements like a cake.

Happy baking!

ETA Gilmer is right: granulated sugar is caster sugar. A stick of butter is a little less than 125g.

Good morning! 8 AM here. I think I'm on track to actually do this whole weekend sober (unlike the last two weekends).

24 more here...and it's snowing.

Dee you know I love you but I gotta tell you do not send me those cookies. If you added raisins they would effectively contain everything I hate in baked goods

Coconut is a very polarizing thing. Worse than politics!

Count me in for 24.

Unfortunately back at Day 2, but feeling very positive. One night of drinking can't erase the 62 sober days I had and now I know it's possible to get right back at it and not devolve into a pattern of drinking immediately after a relapse. I can live with myself having just one night like that. Had I woken up today with a hangover, I don't think I'd have come here and signed in and know that the mental hangover with shame/embarrassment/anxiety would be worse than the physical hangover, so I'm happy to be back here!

8:24AM in NYC
