I’m in Kansas(!) where there isn’t much golden syrup to be found, but we subbed corn syrup and it was just fine. I think you could use honey, also? Might want to google this.

Thank you for the recipe! I use a similar one for these cookies. I had no idea what ANZAC stood for until I shared some with a friend of mine from New Zealand one day and she explained the same story to me.
Yum! I haven’t made these in awhile, so I’ll have to try out your recipe. First, though, I’ll have to track down some golden syrup. It’s not easy to find in the U.S. so I might have to look for it in Canada next time I go.

They were very good, but then I love cranberries. They can be dry, so I soak’em in a dab of boiling water for about 10 min. My kids were loving these.

teslaroo! I want to try the dried cranberries… I was going to this time, but didn’t have any on hand at the time. Did they work out well?

Ah, Anzac biscuits. Those pioneering women knew a thing or two.

Had to say I love your illustrations to death. And feel terribly inadequate next to them, but too bad for me. They’re beautiful.

Oooh, I’ve been drooling over that D.S. fabric for weeks, and I don’t even know how to quilt!

Hi Claire, When I saw this post I felt I had to say “I love your illustrations.” I do. Can’t wait to see what you do with Denyse’s new fabric. Glad you girls enjoyed our little treats : )
