Homemade Pokies

During my years residing in New Zealand I was launched to what should be one of the best homemade biscuits on this planet … historically often called a Hokey Pokey biscuit or Pokies as my kids liked to name them when they had been growing up.

Finest all the time saved in an airtight container where they’ll final for up to every week …however, as they are so good, I bet you eat them all before the days out!

Notes

The art to these caramel tasting biscuits is to solely form into balls when the biscuit mixture is cool enough to handle and appears agency on the tray. I additionally wish to cook these biscuits barely longer than the recipe dictates as I want to eat them very crisp. The scale you make can differ, they can be giant or small. Simply go together with what you take pleasure in greatest.
