Baking day!

Did a bit more baking today. ANZAC bikkies - standard lunch box favourite and I tried a new recipe which is lovely - Coconut biscuits. These ones are gluten free and fructose free. Taken from Sweet Poison Quit Plan. Recipe:

Ingredients:
120 g butter
3/4 cup dextrose
2 eggs
vanilla essence
1 1/2 cups SR flour
1/2 cup desiccated coconut
pinch of salt

Method: Beat butter and dextrose to a cream. Add eggs and beat well. Add vanilla and mix. Mix flour, salt and coconut together then gradually add to mix until all combined. Roll into small balls and press flat with a fork. Cook at 180 degrees C for about 15-20 min or until colour starts to form.

The mix in the book says it makes 20. I got 39 of a decent size. They have passed the taste test. In fact I don't know how long they will last as Scott has just eaten his fifth one...

I will put up the anzac bikkies recipe another day.

I also made some homemade fructose free chocolate yesterday. The boys love it. It turned out very much like dark chocolate. It was pretty easy so when I play around with the recipe a bit more, I will do a blog about that too.
