The run-away Anzacs
Aug. 7th, 2010 08:59 amSo today I'm attending the lovely
lauren_kh's belated birthday party, and instead of presents, she had requested us to cook something beginning with any letter of her full name!
I originally thought i would cook honey Joys (since I always loved them as a kid) but then I didn't think they'd spread far enough, so I decided on Anzac biscuits; namely the first recipe on taste.com.au that had a rating of 5; here.
( also under the cut )
So I went out and bought all the ingredients yesterday, as well as doing my usual weekly shop while there.
I then made them and they turned out perfect for a first attempt; I was sooo happy with myself, but alas; While taking the tray over to the oven, my oven mits got caught in the baking paper, tip went the tray and off flew the anzacs, everywhere! :( I was so so so so so angry and upset, I admit, more than I should have been, but these were perfect; and I hadn't attempted them before.
As Mum had said she'd come to cut my fringe, she assisted me to clean out the oven as some crumbled in there. and it turned out that two of the anzacs ended up cooking somewhere on the bottom of the oven, so I ate them! They were good, but I think I needed to press them down more.
I was thinking of making them again this morning, but I have no more plain flower. I could duck out and get some, but I'd be pushing time.
Loz understood as I told her I'd prob just bring chips, but it wasn't what I wanted to do. :(
Anyway, I have natcho cheese which does start with a letter in her name, so I'm almost there. Lol! also sweet chili, honey soy, bonus!
I will make some more anzacs tomorrow and then give them to her as a peace offering; she'll prob say "don't be silly" but it's the least I can do.
Ah well.
Til Next time, RdFreak
