It is hard to stop at just one! The delicate flavor is outstanding & I love the "crispy"/soft but not crunchy texture! (Does that make sense?) I definitely plan to make these again for my family. They love Hob Nobs too! : )Joynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-81748030496103066002024-01-11T17:15:41.133+00:002024-01-11T17:15:41.133+00:00Definitely use the light.

You can make your own by blitzing regular granulated sugar in a food processor. Brown sugar has too much of a molasses flavor to be used in these cookies and might drown out the flavor of the golden syrup, but at the end of the day you can use whatever sugar you wish and they will still be a very good cookie.Marie Raynerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407913432222377267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-36094150391383567682023-08-10T03:19:47.044+01:002023-08-10T03:19:47.044+01:00What is the difference between castor sugar you me...What is the difference between castor sugar you mentionned in a comment you used and organic cane sugar or regular white sugar or brown sugar for this recipe.

We are bringing all manner of food for the road and for Joanne, the lucky roomie hosting us. Hobnobs seem to fit the bill for easy munchies on the road and to gift our tea loving hostess. Given my location, with no Tate and Lyles in sight, maple will be the syrup of choice. Thanks for the recipe, Marie. I will be sure to let you know how they turn out.
