Hey Nicola! Are any of these suitable to pre-make and freeze for a few days before baking?

Hey didar, so sorry for the delay! Yes I think the malt chocolate cookies would be fine, and you could pipe then bake the Viennese fingers from frozen. I’m not sure about the gingers - but that mix would be fine in the fridge for a few days!

Hiya! I’m so sorry for the delay how did I miss this comment! So, yes I got malt syrup in my local shop, I’m probably quite lucky they have such a big baking selection. You could change for another syrup, like golden, if you can’t find it. And also I rate the waitrose essential range of chocolates! Xxx

Hiya! Yes definitely. Hand mixer with beaters - do you have one of those? The oat biscuits and chocolate cookies you can make without a mixer, just stir together xx

hi nicola, i've been doing a deep dive in your cookie/biscuit/shortbread/sable posts and as someone who is often confused by definitions, what would you say is tge difference between all these terms? is a sable a biscuit? or a cookie? are cookies and biscuits the same? is shortbread a whole new category?? isn't sable a French shortbread? HELP

Thank you for your kind words! Please will you send me a pic of your granny’s shortbread when you’ve made it? Either on instagram or email! 😍
