ANZAC BISCUITS
2 cups of rolled oats
11/2 (half) cups coconut
2 cups of plain flour
3 teasp bicarbonate soda
5 tabsp boiling water
1 cup of sugar
2 tabsp golden syrup
250g butter
Combined rolled oats, sifted flour, sugar and coconut in bowl
Combine butter and golden syrup in saucepan stir over heat until the butter is melted.
Mix soda with boiling water and add to melted butter mixture.
Stir into dry ingredients
Roll teasp of mixture onto baking paper lined trays and flatten with fork. Allow room for spreading
Bake in slow oven for 20 minutes until golden and cool on tray.
Mixture makes about 6 doz.
Warning:
Be careful when adding soda and water to butter as it froths up everywhere and makes a bit mess. After the first mess I learnt to do it over the basin of dry ingredients.

Thanks Mel. I have decided to put Joe’s book here and you will find it under Pop’s chicken soup. His book is a labor of love but getting into my blog even greater.
