Abernethy biscuits.
Here how you make them
Ingredients:
One standard egg
8 oz plain flour
One tablespoon milk
3 oz caster sugar
3 oz butter
Half a level teaspoon baking powder
Half a level teaspoon of carraway seeds
Method:
Sift the flour and baking powder and rub in the butter until it is thoroughly mixed. Mix in the sugar and carraway seeds and then add the egg and milk to make a stiff dough.
Roll the mixture on a floured surface until it is the thickness required for a biscuit/cookie. Cut out with a three-inch plain cutter, rolling the trimmings to make more, as required. Prick the top of the biscuits with a fork and place on greased baking trays and bake in a pre-heated oven at 375F/190C/Gas Mark 5 for ten minutes until a light golden brown.

Technically not a biscuit. You lose by default

It's an age old debate, is a jaffa cake a cake or a biscuit?
I say biscuit![]()
There is no debate, legally they are a cake, as they go hard when they are past their sell by date.
Smart ass.
I hope mine goes hard after it's sell by date![]()
If they were darker in colour we could call them Caffa Cakes.
(I know you meant to say Kaffa, but I won't pull you up on it, because it was funny all the same!)You must log in or register to see images
