Munchies

This simple but delicious biscuit, which I am not sure is a true Anza,c but more like a rolled out biscuit. We call them Munchies, and it is the name that has been used in my family for generations.

These biscuits are soft and chewy and are elevated to the next level when using homemade golden syrup.

I live with the belief that these biscuits are healthy, if muesli bars are healthy because they have rolled oats, then so are these biscuits.
