Anzac Biscuits

Anzac Bikkies are an old Australian cookie that were made for soldiers during WW1. They were easy to make with rations, provide good energy, and were able to last the long trip overseas.

They are now a classic favourite and can be found in many different forms. This recipe is the one my mum still makes to this day.
