Fairy cakes?

if you suggest other ingredients, people can give you better suggestions

Example if you have dried fruit and oats and syrup/honey/something sticky - you can make flapjacks

I think my problem is I don't know what goes with what..

I have had a look, I also have;

Some honey, about 4 tablespoons worth.. I could get more as I do eat it
A nearly full box of scottish rolled oats - porridge
Bournville cooking chocolate
Plain flour - 2 bags of it!!


Flapjacks would be cool, cookies, cakes stuff, anything really..

zippychick

well you sure have the ingredients for flapjacks, fairy cakes (links in previous posts ) ,and twinks hobknobs

So what do you want to start with

Every day biscuits are lovely and the mix freezes well in a sausage shape

I have made these many times - SO tasty and filling too (and easy) I just adapt to what i have in

Chocolate chip cookies

Oooh, spoilt for choice!

The everyday biscuits sound great, especially as I can freeze some of it.. I usually make way too much lol..

When it says golden syrup, can I replace this with the honey?

Thanks for the suggestions, really glad I asked now

Yes i would make that replacement Both sticky and sweet :j

Report back - ill leave this to see what ideas others have, and merge it later (and update)

You will be hooked . Damn you, I want flapjacks now! :eek::o

Oh and twinks also freezes in a sausage roll shape . (assuming you have the ingredients for twinks, i think you need bicarb and not sure if you have that )

fairy cakes also freeze well - mine keep fresh for over a week somehow. I'm not sure if it's because i add milk........ They keep very fresh though.

lol - me tooooo! damn, I should have asked earlier !!

I will certainly report back tomorrow evening with what I have 'created'

GEEGEE8
