Chocolate Anzac Biscuits
Ingredients
½ cup dried apricots
120g butter
150g plain flour
80g rolled oats
140g sugar
90g dark choc bits
15g coconut
3 tablespoons golden syrup
1 teaspoon carb soda

Turn oven to 1900
Chop the apricots for 2-3 seconds on speed 6. Set aside.
Place butter in the bowl, melt for 2 minutes at 500 speed 1.
Place all the other ingredients in the bowl. Lock the lid and use  :: for around 30 seconds until mix comes together.
Place heaped teaspoonfuls onto greased trays, press down gently with a fork.
Bake for 10-12 minutes.



These are just slightly different to traditional anzacs for a change. I based the recipe on a CSR one.

CP - My mix was very dry so I ended up adding 65g water, probably should have added only about 40g as they flattened a little bit and weren't as perky looking as yours. Never mind, they taste delicious. Adding chocolate and apricots makes them very special.

margi191 - they are beautiful, definitely a keeper this recipe!

Chelsea - they are very yummy. Thanks for the recipe Cookie.

JD - I whipped up a batch of these this morning, put them in the oven, turned around and there was the bowl of chopped apricots looking at me. So, out of the oven, back into the bowl with the apricots and I started over again.  Very nice thanks Cookie. I made about 40 cookies.

Amy - This is an awesome recipe cookie! Thank you. I made it exactly as per the recipe and they were perfect.

Kimmyh - very yummy.

I only use the solar drier I'm afraid, even in winter.

Last night we had Kerryn's Chicken, Salami, Avocado etc fettuccine. It was lovely. Ours wasn't too pretty to look at but very tasty. We followed it with sticky date puddings from the freezer and custard.

The cookbook is a wonderful idea to share Jo. Congraulations. I think bad consultants probably don't last very long.

I think I'll need to think seriously about this as I don't make the same thing very often.
We love curries either meat or chicken.
Baf's award winning chicken and tweaks
Quiches with all the prep done in the TMX
Robyn's beef casserole
and...

Jodi I tend to decide as to what I have available. Be  sure to take some veggie stock concentrate. I make risottos, things like baf's chicken and lots of soup. But that won't be much good in winter. Do you have an oven available? That could help. When we went away in May I looked through all the recipe I had printed off and selected some and took what I needed-within reason.
We had Judy's beef and beer, also swiss beef. As I remember more I'll put them down.

I always make sure I have a dish to make varoma bread too. You can add sultanas to make it sweet. Mine is a small casserole dish that fits and can be used as a salad bowl or to make casseroles.

Flipper keep your eye on www.Thermomix.com.au and make sure you sign up for their newsletter. Ask your consultant to keep you informed too. I hope we get some advanced classes over here, it would be great.

I agree with you both.  Since having the TMX I now buy EVOO in 3 litre containers. I hardly used it much before. I do reduce it when I'm cooking, but bread and similar things contain it which I rarely made before.

Welcome yorkie. It's been interesting reading about the snow. I'm from Perth in West Australia (as are many of the forum members) and we have had very little rain here at all this year.  Whereas at the moment some people in the eastern part of Australia are being evacuated due to flooding.
I hope the snow and cold improve to normal levels for you.

Katya I've been listening to the ashes, :'( :'( you are doing well. It's probably worth getting up for from your point of view.
