Homemade Biscuits

Just a reminder for those who want to bake a variety of biscuits with one recipe.  This is the 4 ingredient recipe and then add whatever topping you want, jam, M&M's, sprinkles, sultanas.  Because they are made with wholemeal self raising flour they must be good for you right! 

Actually the thing I like about this recipe is it makes lots of biscuits with the one recipe so you can make a variety of things and I usually divide the mixture into two and freeze one half with the cooking instructions on the front of the plastic bag (ie 180c degrees for 10 mins) so there is no washing up for the next batch of biscuits.  You could however make all the biscuits in one batch and freeze them but I divide the dough into two, make the biscuits and put them in a container in the freezer and then put the remaining dough in a plastic bag but first I wrap the dough in cling wrap.  You can make jam drops, mix sultanas into some, choc chips on top anything.

The ingredients are:-

500gms butter (approx 1.1 lbs)

1 can of condensed milk (400gms)

1 cup of sugar

5 cups of wholemeal self raising flour

** assorted toppings, jam, sprinkes, choc etc.

Just bake for 10 minutes on 180c degrees.....I confess that the mixture by itself uncooked is very moreish and I find myself eating a little too much of it...yum.  Since I can't find my biscuit pictures I'll post a picture of my backyard flowering Jasmine instead and you can see the biscuit photos in my previous post here.
