    Just made a batch of these for the first time, can't believe I have never made them before. I know I printed off the receipe ages ago :D

    Well all I will say is MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmm. I dread to think what DH is going to say when he tastes them. I have some mix left over which I am going to roll into little balls and open freeze them, so that next time I fancy biccies I can grab the mix out of the freezer and voila!!

    How big are your balls jinks? And no I'm not being rude..:rolleyes: I put just bigger than ping pong size and have got 20 cooked so far, and enough mix left over for another 20 or more.

    If anyone has a B&M store nearby, they have Cranberry & White Chocolate Chunks for 29p.

    I made some hobnobs with a full pack for Halloween. We handed them out along with a chup a chup to the kids who came to the door.

    You could really taste the white chocolate in them, the kids loved them.

    ;)

    These lovely biscuits are called 'Twinks' in our house and always go down really well.
