    Those will be the famed Twinks Hobnobs you're looking for.


    8oz sr flour
    8oz sugar
    8oz porridge oats
    8oz margarine
    1tbsp golden syrup
    1tbsp hot water
    1/2 tsp bic soda
    mix flour, oats and sugar, melt marg, syrup and water in a pan stir in bic soda and add to dry mix, mix well, make smallish balls and put on greased tray and flatten slightly with a fork, 180oc for 15 mins, cool on the tray, you just want them golden in oven not brown


    8ozs = 225 grams

    I scribbled this recipe down just the other day and have been out to buy the marge today specifically to make some this evening. They sound delish and I'm really looking forward to being able to confirm that they are.
