One last, because I can safely say, biscuits (and cake) do nothing for me. BUT I had to stop DD baking cheese scones (drool), and last month I accidentally bought Fudco deluxe salted nut mix which I can't now allow in the house I scoffed them so quickly.

Sorry, another biscuit post. QueenJess, baking them is also better for packaging waste and palm oil consumption (all have palm oil in in my experience) and you burn calories in the baking too (not many as I can whip up a batch in ten mins, but better than nothing!) 😊Mortgage free 16/06/2023! £132,500 cleared in 11 years, 3 months and 7 days
