ANZAC Biscuits

I am a pretty big fan of ANZAC biscuits... but I'm not very good at making them.

On my last attempt I burnt most of them. Partially the blame falls on the recipe I followed that said to heat the oven to 200C. However ultimately it was I who failed to keep an eye on the job.

This is my latest attempt.

The recipe I used is from the back of the bag of shredded coconut (note that the recipe on the mckenzies website is different from that found on the packet).

Conclusion

Probably not a good idea too use to much butter. Not sure what the consequence of using wrong flour and baking powder is.

Still edible.
