Recipe Reviews
Delicious and quick and easy. Will definitely be making these again.
Swapped sugar and honey with raisins and dates. Whole Family loved them.
Didn't have any ground almonds so just left out, and used half caster and half brown sugar. Turned out really well! After 20 mins they were golden and crunchy on the outside and chewy in the middle. Delicious! Next time would probably use less sugar as I don't think they need that much with the honey as well.
Really easy to make, I made these with my 3 year old granddaughter. Very tasty cookies too, they don't last long in our house!
I used Lidl cherries and berries with some raisins and halved the sugar. I always wash dried fruit before use so added them with the melted butter. Cooked at a slightly higher temperature to brown them a little more. Enjoyed by everyone and will make them again.
Lovely simple recipe, amazing results. Crispy and chewy with a great flavour. Easy to make vegan too, using dairy free margarine in the place of butter.
