G’day, mates! I’m here today to share with you an innovative twist on the traditional Australian Anzac cookie. As you may know, Anzac cookies have been a beloved staple of Australian and New Zealand cuisine since World War I. These biscuits were sent to soldiers on the frontline as a source of nourishment, and they’ve been enjoyed for generations since.
But today, I present to you a revamped version that’s perfect for the modern-day sweet tooth. With the addition of corn syrup, M&Ms, Hershey’s chocolate, and mini-marshmallows, this recipe takes a classic to a whole new level of deliciousness.
**Ingredients:**
– 1 cup rolled oats
– 1 cup plain flour
– 1 cup desiccated coconut
– 1 cup brown sugar
– 125g unsalted butter
– 2 tbsp golden syrup (or corn syrup for an extra gooey texture)
– 1/2 tsp baking soda
– 1 tbsp boiling water
– 1/2 cup M&Ms
– 1/2 cup chopped Hershey’s chocolate (or chocolate chips)
– 1/2 cup mini-marshmallows
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F) and line two baking trays with baking paper.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the rolled oats, flour, desiccated coconut, and brown sugar.
3. In a small saucepan, melt the butter and golden syrup (or corn syrup) over low heat. Stir occasionally to ensure the mixture is smooth and well combined.
4. In a separate small bowl, dissolve the baking soda in the boiling water, then add it to the melted butter mixture. Stir until it starts to froth.
5. Pour the butter mixture into the dry ingredients, and mix well until combined.
6. Add the M&Ms, chopped Hershey’s chocolate, and mini-marshmallows to the mixture. Stir until they’re evenly distributed.
7. Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and roll them into balls. Place the balls onto the prepared baking trays, making sure to leave some space between each cookie for expansion.
8. Flatten each ball slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingertips.
9. Bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes, or until they’re golden brown around the edges.
10. Allow the cookies to cool on the tray for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
These revamped Anzac cookies are sure to be a hit with friends and family. The addition of corn syrup, M&Ms, Hershey’s chocolate, and mini-marshmallows gives a unique flavor and texture that’s perfect for anyone with a sweet tooth. Enjoy these treats with a cuppa and share the love with your fellow cookie enthusiasts!
