Yummy Biscuits

Here's a recipe I adapted from the back of a box of Nestle Corn Flakes:

200 g plain flour, 1 tbsp cocoa/Milo powder (A)

2 cups Nestle Honey Gold cereal finely ground (I used Nestle Corn Flakes)
100g white cooking chocolate, chopped or Van Houten choc chips
100g raisins (I cut this to 40g. Alternatively, drop the choc - otherwise you may risk having hyper kids)
100g chopped walnuts (Optional - I didn't use any)

250g butter
100g caster sugar
1 cup Nestle Corn Flakes, coarsely crushed (Again, optional)
2 teaspoons Nescafe coffee mix with 2 teaspoons water (Optional - I didn't use any)

Preparation
1. Sift together ingredients A. Stir in Nestle Honey Gold cereal, chopped choc, raisins and chopped walnuts. Set aside. (B)

2. Cream butter, sugar and Nescafe coffee mixture until fluffy (This step is important. The lighter the mixture, the crispier the biscuit. I used a manual whisk and got help from husband, Sweet Potato and domestic helper. The hard work is well worth it). Fold in flour mixture B and mix well until soft dough forms.

3. Drop teaspoonful of mixture into crushed Nestle Corn Flakes and roll until well coated. (Skip this step unless you are baking for someone who is crazy about cereals! I suspect Nestle is trying to push sales ...)

4. Place teaspoonful of mixture on lightly greased baking trays, allow room for spreading.

5. Bake in preheated 180 deg C oven for 12-15 minutes or until lightly brown. Remove from oven and let it stand for 20 minutes or so.

It's real easy. I have done it 2x and got amazing feedback - "As good as Marks & Spencer", "Better than Mrs Fields", "Like Famous Amos" and to my surprise, even satisfied my most picky 'customers' - my husband and Peanut.
