I know what these were going to taste like before I made them. I had them offered to me a lot as a child and I know people like them. This is a 'Top 20' Edmonds recipe. This recipe makes a good amount of cookies in a decent size. There is nothing wrong with the recipe and if you like Peanut Brownies you will like these. I just don't like Peanuts in my cookies.

This recipe in the Edmonds Classics Cookery book uses orange jelly crystals and coconut in the ingredients. The other ingredients include an egg and rice flour along with the usual standard flour.
These had a nice texture, but I didn't really like them. No jelly crystal in bikkies for me! I liked the story with the next recipe in the Edmonds Classics cookery book. Annie says Nutties is one of her favourite recipes because her Grandmother used to make them and have them in her baking tins. Now she makes them with hazelnuts.
For my attempt I used walnuts. The flavour is really nice and golden syrupy. I like walnuts too. The cookies themselves stayed pretty round and didn't change shape much from my original pre baked form. Next in the Edmonds Classics Cookery Book is Melting Moments. Here is the online recipe for these: MELTING MOMENTS Mine ended up being quite large. I thought these would be more meltier, but mine were a more crunchy. Maybe I baked them too long. The taste is nice though.
Ginger kisses are one of my favourite bakes to buy. This recipe had me making mock cream for the first time. The mock cream was made with whipped up butter, icing sugar and boiled water. The spices in the cookie dough are ginger and cinnamon.
The recipe didn't make enough mock cream and I had to make 2 lots of it. I think I would have liked a more citrus icing rather than a mock cream. The next lot of kisses in the Edmonds Classics Cookery book is Custard Kisses. These are made with 3/4 C of custard powder and sandwiched with raspberry jam.
Mine spread out more than they probably should have. These are yum though. Quite a soft bikkie and yummy custard and jam flavours. These Kisses from the Edmonds Classics Cookery Book have 3/4 C of coconut in them and are sandwiched with butter icing. They do not take long to bake at 15 minutes.
These were yummy! Would definitely make them again. Lots of kisses coming up in the Edmonds Classics Cookery Book. The first are Renee's Kisses.
These spread like they were suppose to. Plain biscuits sandwiched with jam. They were a little eggy in flavour. They were ok. The next recipe in the Edmonds Classics Cookery Book is Honey Snaps.
The recipe uses 50g of butter and 3 tablespoons of honey, and mentions how you need to drop teaspoons of this on a tray, leaving enough room for the mixture to spread and double in size. The recipe also says it makes 20. I made 11 little balls that didn't spread :D My batter was pretty crumbly. Maybe next time I should use more butter. They honey flavour is really nice though. The next recipe is Hokey Pokey Biscuits, and they do have this recipe online too: Edmonds Cookbook Hokey Pokey Biscuits These smell so nice when baking. They are a fast bake. They have a nice chewy texture and taste like anzac bikkies without the rolled oats or coconut. These were yummy.
