oh shame, hope you find them soon

on further investigation, I think my ex OH binned them by mistake (looong story :rolleyes:)

anyway, I found one of those Silverwood 'bake-any-size-of-square-cake' tins that I'd forgotten I had & used the base of that & they're absolutely wonderful! :T
I've had to send 'parcels' of them to my daughter & her partner & to my Ex (although he really doesn't deserve them!)
now I'm going to experiment with brown sugar & different flours

brilliant Twink, thanks :A

its great that everyone is liking the hobnobs and i think they are quite good for adapting to use some other ingredients

I have to agree Twinks hobnobs are fantastic.....
I make a batch a week now and they are all eaten within 2 days ( not all by me either My DSs who dont like flapjacks of any description love them also

So a :T from me also

I agree too.... I make them so that DS (3) can have something to eat when he gets out of his swimming lesson. I like how the oats are slow burning and I know exactly what it is in them. I love the way they come out really crunchy...next time I'll try them with a little chocolate brushed on
:-)

thanks

twink

Thanks ladies, glad you like them, i made some the other day and i usually like to put some ground ginger in mine

yep! found i needed slightly more of the dried bits than usual. Also slung in a dessert spoon of cinnamon. They are really scrummy...
