Notes
These are not an overly sweet biscuit, if you try one and you think it needs to be sweeter ice them when they are cooled and add more sugar next time.
OR add a tablespoon or more sugar to the mix before rolling.
Add a teaspoon of ground ginger for variety.
Try mixed dried fruit instead of just sultanas.
Try half quick oats half weet bix.
These freeze well when cooked.
The dough freezes well when wrapped in cling wrap and sealed in a freezer bag.
Divide mixture into 2 or 4 portions and have different flavours.
In picture mine are choc chip on the right and ginger on the left.
