Let's Bake The easiest way to follow a recipe Vegetarian Reviews Kate Perkins 21 April 2018 5 star rating Fantastic recipe. Made for the children who have said they no longer want shop bought bourbon biscuits ever again! Sophie Emerald 25 August 2017 5 star rating I was looking for a bourbon recipe that also shows you how to make the cream for a while. This recipe made about 25 bourbons that taste just like the ones you buy from a shop! I rolled the dough out much thinner and cut smaller rectangles so that they were the same size as a regular bourbon, but apart from that I followed the recipe exactly.
