Biscuits. Another great British tradition. Put the kettle on, brew a pot of tea and settle down with a good plate of bickies. Now that I live in America I’ve had to get used to calling them cookies. Biscuits here look more like English scones. Delicious, but you can’t dunk them in your tea or coffee like you can real biscuits.
I thought it would be great to put together a book of all the traditional British biscuit recipes I could lay my hands on. Of course, not many people make their own these days, especially as there are so many wonderful varieties to be found in the supermarket. But they really are so easy to make and so yummy. Great fun to do with the kids on a rainy day.
Twenty delectable delights to choose from:-
Digestives
Gingernuts
Flapjacks
Shrewsbury Biscuits
Ayrshire Shortbread
Almond Shortbread
Petticoat Tails
Garibaldi Biscuits
Cornish Fairings
Abernethy Biscuits
Jam Thumb Biscuits
Bourbon Biscuits
Custard Creams
Anzac Biscuits
Treacle Bites
Rich Tea Biscuits
Savory Cheesy Biscuits
Coffee Biscuits
Arrowroot Biscuits
Jammie Dodgers
