These biscuits (cookies in America) are called Anzacs because they were baked by Australian women and sent to their ANZAC soldier sons/husbands serving in Europe and Middle east during WW I. It was more like 2 months before they were received back then, so they certainly do travel well! ** Please note that 1 Australian Tablespoon = 20 mls whereas in most others countries it = 15 mls.

Yes I found the mix dry too. Ended up adding extra hot water and golden syrup after the first batch were not as flat as conventional anzacs are. Anzacs are normally quite flat, and crispy - almost snappy. The old Women's Weekly version is probably the classic I am remembering so we will stick to that recipe for our family. However, for an oaty bulky bikky this is delicious.

    Yes, the mix is a little dry. I used 2 US TBS of Corn Syrup and water and all worked well. Thanks.

    Yum, these were good. DB loves them. Thanks, will make it again. For variation you can add two teaspoons of cocoa powder to the dough, and top the baked and cooled bisuits with baking chocolate.

    These are fabulous, reminds me of Almond Rocca LOL. Though it was a bit crumbly. I realized there's no need to chill the dough for they stayed in shape while baking. They're done in 15min UPDATE: i've added 1/2t for the remaining 5 cookies (as suggested by SUDIKA) but i didn't taste anything diff as compared to the plain ones. Again, great crunchy cookies! UPDATE AGAIN: 3rd time i made these, doubled the recipe and still works great!
