Collywobbles is a very funny name for a biscuit, for anything, really. I have a very dear friend, who gave me this recipe. She has made these for about 50 years now. Whenever I make them, my kids argue over who is going to help roll the balls of dough.
My toddler never wants to roll, but rather tries to eat them while they are still hot.
This recipe makes about 40 biscuits, so it really keeps your tin stocked up for a while. One of these in a lunch box is sure to keep your kids happy.
300g cake flour
300g oats
30ml cinnamon
300g butter
10ml syrup
10ml bicarbonate of soda
10ml milk
Preheat oven to 180⁰C and grease three cookie trays.
Melt butter with syrup and add Bicarb.
Combine dry ingredients.
Add butter mixture to dry ingredients and add milk. Mix well.
Press cookie dough firmly together with your hands to shape into a ball and place onto cookie sheet.
Flatten dough slightly with the back of a spoon or fork.
Bake for 10 – 15 minutes and allow to cool on a wire rack.
Store in an airtight container when completely cooled.
Don’t forget to give your helpers a little taste.
