My friend Vicki is from Australia, and my daughter Adiya adores her. Possibly the only thing she adores more than Vicki are Vicki’s cookies (only kidding Vicki, she does love you more). These are basically ANZAC biscuits, but a bit different. Vicki uses slightly more coconut than what I’ve seen in the ANZAC biscuit recipes here on Zaar, and since golden syrup is hard to get here in Israel, she substitutes maple syrup. It’s not often my Didi brings home recipes from other mothers, so take notice of this one, it’s good! Thanks, Vicki, for sharing these with Didi (and me).
These candies are quick to make, but allow 15-30 minutes for them to set up in the fridge before serving. Cook time is chill time. Very nice on a dessert tray…Posted for ZWT 5.
I didn’t believe the recipe when my friend Lesley gave it to me, but having tasted the slice, and loving it, I tried it and had sucess the first time I made it, eveyone loved it. The family call it my “stolen apple slice” It freezes very well!! UPDATE Jubes used a gluten free cake mix, and reports that it turned out very well. Nice dessert for those people that cant tolerate gluten!
Not for the birds but a favourite lunchtime snack. Normal size of a slice tin is 35cm long x 20 cm wide x 4 cm deep.
I love these no bake Lemon Coconut Squares, as I love anything with lemon in it. They are really popular in Australia and you often get them at morning and afternoon teas.
