For goodness sake please let this thread go away. I NEED to make some now I've seen it, and I ought to be dieting.

go on, you know it makes sense, and just think how nice they would go with a lovely hot cup of tea, just one a day wont ruin your diet and the porage oats will make you feel full for longer lol

dont feel guilty lol you need to test them first, you may need to retest when they cool down though

I haven't read the whole thread, but has anyone else made these as a tray bake. We do and it's very yummy, we usually add mixed spice to it.

Just thought Twink and others might like to know, we had a special benefit meeting at Ipswich speedway on Thursday night - to raise funds for an ex rider of ours who was paralysed in a crash in Sweden in August. Myself and a friend decided to sell cakes and biscuits to the staff, riders and mechanics, of course a batch of hob nobs was a "must"! We also sold double chocolate muffins and iced fairy cakes, and raised a total of £65.50 - the hob nobs were the first thing to sell out too as word got around!

So thanks Twink for a superb recipe! :T

Well I know you're not stupid! How on earth do you think I can have one a day????? Do you know how many hobnobs it takes to get to this shape?

well done essexhebridean for raising £65, a lot of hard work for a good cause and glad the hobnobs went well
