    Do you have a recipe for these? (If they don't have egg in that is :))

    No eggs in them :)

    225g softened butter
    225g caster sugar
    170g consensed milk
    350g SR flour
    150g chocolate cut into chunks

    Makes about 30 cookies.

    Cream the butter and sugar together, stir in the condensed milk, add the flour and work into a smooth dough, add the chocolate.

    Divide dough in half, roll each half into a thick sausage, wrap in cling film, chill for a min of half hour, the longer the better. Can be kept for up to a week or frozen.

    When you're ready to bake them heat oven to 180c, slice about 1cm thick, put them on baking tray with plenty of space, I usually do 6 at a time, bake for 15 mins until golden around the edges but still soft in the middle, scrumbelicious!

    I've just made a big loaf of wholemeal soda bread with chopped dried apricots, some chopped apple and a little spice. It smells fine! The inrention is to toast it for breakfast - will hopefully satisfy the sweet tooth instead of using lots of marmalade with ordinary toast!

    made some honey wheat rolls and a loaf of oat bread :)

    rolls turned out so so, had the oven a tad too high so although they where brown on top they needed a few more mins in but didn't want them burning so we'll eat them as is!

    Wow really impressed with all the cooking. I've recently embarked on a challenge to try and bake the entire Bero book in one year. I haven't baked anything today but on Sunday I did a sponge and Yorkshire puddings. One was better than the other!!! It's all on my blog which is on my user profile, I think it's against the rules to promote my website directly or I would stick a link up. Anyway, would love to know if anyone else finds the Bero Yorkshire pudding mix too runny? Should have used my instincts!

    Not a great baker, I do try but... Made some choc-crispy cookies last night, adapted the recipe a bit and added some dark chopped chocolate (as I had no choc chips) and some chopped apricot. Turned out rather nice :-)

    Breadmaker ( bought half price in sale in Jan, how did I manage without it?) set on timer so bread should be done as soon as we get in from work then plan to make some bread rolls for lunches this week

    Enjoying this thread. :)I'm doing mini cheese and onion pasties tonight. Frying the onion first and making pastry from scratch. I want to take a couple of them into town tomorrow with a flask of hot chocolate, as it's still just about warm and calm enough to sit outside (of course, now I've said that, it won't be :lipsrseal) Will give OH a few to take into work.
    Leftovers from last night are going to be mixed with some mash and fried like bubble and squeak.
    Oh, I'll do a tinned fruit crumble too, I can't justify putting the oven on for just one dish.
    Keep calm and keep crafting :happyhear
