  • We call these the fainting

    We call these the fainting biscuits because my eldest daughter fainted while making them. Very yummy and we still make them all the time!

    i halved the recipe and stillgot oodles of biscuits tmrc_emoticons.) ts is an awesome recipe, though is very sweet. Next time I think I shall leave out the raw sugar and see if it lessens the sweetness a bit.

  • These are fantastic and so

    Submitted by Halfri on 12. March 2014 - 16:44.

    These are fantastic and so easy!! I didnt rest them and used a bit of extra flour to roll the balls. Instead of icing I used 100s and 1000s before baking. Just enough sweet and easier to store.
