Looking for a recipe from an old cookery book...

Years ago, I used to have a big cookery book called (I think) the Hamlyn All-Colour Cookbook. Goodness knows what happened to it, but there was a really nice recipe in it for Australian biscuits. I just wondered if any of you nice people might have the book and could reunite me with the recipe?

Maybe I can be of some help.
It probably was Anzac Biscuits. Can you remember any ingredients they had?
Anzac biscuits are really really yummy, and healthy if you forget about the butter, sugar & syrup. Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia.0 -
