I have come to the conclusion that there is very little that can go wrong no matter what you seem to add. Must try the jam next time.

I forgot the baking powder in the batch last night - but they are still good - just haven't spread out so much.

Raisin ones are my favourite - choc chips the kids fave - must try jam version, and nana....

Annie, my 1st lot were a bit chewy too. Put them back in the oven for another 5 mins, they were fab!!!!:T

Thanks for that, hubby & son will like them a bit chewy if I put a bit more syrup in will it make them a bit chewier?

Hi Twink,

Just wanted to say thanks. I tried normal sugar this time rather than the dark one and used oat meal instead of rolled porridge oats and the Biccies have turned out perfect. OH loved them ...

Thanks very much

Have a very Happy Christmas and New Year everyone

I worked out the calorie totals sometime back and it was 4106 kcal for the whole recipe.

on my first attempt I rolled it out and used a 2" pastry cutter, and got about 40, yu could go a size smaller and make them realy dainty I think the record is about 90

post number 1153 on page 58ish (I think) give the accumilated knowledge of twinks makers.

Ive had fun trying two versions so far and the recipe got requested by some serious Womens Institute bakers in Birmingham. It takes much to impress them, thanks Twink

Hi, I just wanted to say that I have read on other threads about Twinks hobnobs but could never find the recipe. Tonight I have stumbled on it, and can't wait to try it out. Will let you know how it goes. I'm new to all this but picking up some good ideas. Thanks everyone.

Hi i am a regular maker of Twinks' hobnobs and chocolate chip version (my 6 yr old loves them!) but as i always make lots has anyone tried freezing them after cooking?Just wondering what they turn out like when defrosted - didn't want to do it if they end up soggy as i don't want to waste any thanks!
