These sound amazing!

FYI, peanuts aren’t tree nuts, they’re legumes. Folks with tree nut allergies can safely eat peanuts.

These look and sound like the perfect pick me up with tea on a gloomy day!

We have a nut allergy in our house! What can we swap it out for that doesn’t compromise the recipe?

Feel better soon. xoxo

These biscuits look divine! I’m a sucker for anything PB + choc so will definitely be giving them a go, thank you!

I have diastatic malt power in the house (for bread baking) and I’ve always wondered, does anyone know if it can be subbed for horlicks?

(I’ve googled it a few times in the past but yet to find a clear answer, so any wisdom would be appreciated!)

Hello Ncola

I am all set for making this recipe and realised that it has egg-yolks. I am allergic to eggs so I can use them. Would it make a tremendous difference if I skip them? Alternatively what can I use to make up for the fat? Butter? I looked up and it seems they have 50% water and 30 Fat. So perhaps add those back in grams as water and butter? I am sorry I know it’s not easy to do so and to put you on spot like this. Any suggestions are welcome. Thank you

Best biscuits I’ve ever baked myself! I didn’t have malt and added caramilk chunks as well as milk chocolate. Absolutely glorious and so easy! Thanks so much for the recipe.

This worked out really well. So quick and simple. I left out the Horlicks as I didn't want to buy a big container just to add 10g. Still tasted great. I cut the biscuits straight from frozen using a really sharp knife

I love your quick recipes and the recipes where I have all the ingredients to hand 😌 I just wondered what does malt powder add to the biscuit or is it more for taste?
