Desiccated coconut is a fine grind unsweetened coconut. You could use unsweetened coconut flaked and blitz them in a food processor to chop them finely.Marie Raynerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407913432222377267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-84771189621968615052017-01-26T18:06:21.319+00:002017-01-26T18:06:21.319+00:00These look delicious and just the thing I've b...These look delicious and just the thing I've been craving.

These are a staple in South Africa and are known as Crunchies and baked in a swissroll pan, cut into squares. My mum also makes a chocolate version, which is fab. I was so happy to see them here! Tate & Lyle's Golden Syrup was always in the kitchen cupboard for this bake :) (or to have drizzled over Suet Pudding and custard). Thanks for the happy memory revisit, Marie!

I only had one of these as did Todd as they were destined for the Missionaries, but the lads left here after and went to a friends for their supper and they gave my friend and her husband one each and my friend who used to live in Australia wanted the recipe! So they must be good! xoMarie Raynerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407913432222377267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-10534238920554777152017-01-26T11:59:39.219+00:002017-01-26T11:59:39.219+00:00What a lovely thoughtful gesture.

I looked up Australia Day and read about the settling of Australia (wikipedia is great)and learned that's on Jan. 26th. I didn't know what Anzac was, I thought it was a spice! So I looked up Anzac Day and that's on April 25th, a day of rememberance for those who served and died. Then I looked up what does Anzac mean? It's an acronym for Australian + New Zealand Army Corps.! I laughed at myself for thinking it was some kind of spice!! hahaha It's always good to learn something new, thanks Marie! I can't wait to make these!Mary McAndrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04395679637846393350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-24245126261106626162017-01-26T06:32:05.575+00:002017-01-26T06:32:05.575+00:00Love ANZAC biscuits.

It must have been readily available during the war years and after when recipes like this came into being.local alienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14586011850451326646noreply@blogger.com
