Hill Coconut Creams Biscuits 150 g (Pack of 36)

Product Information

These biscuits were such a hit that people needed to recreate them in their own homes. In fact, my mom used to regularly bake a batch of Romany creams when it was biscuit baking time. And she used a recipe out of the Kei Road Women's Association Centenary Recipe Book.

Cocoa powder B –a plain old cocoa powder will do. My go-to Cocoa Powders in New Zealand are Cadbury and Nestle.To make the buttercream filling, place the butter, sifted icing sugar, vanilla extract and milk into a clean Thermomix bowl and mix for 10 seconds, Speed 6. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and continue to mix until pale and creamy. I have to admit my expectations weren’t high when I first found this recipe in Nana Ling’s handwritten cookbook.It just seemed too simple. Way too easy. They’re soft and chewy, fabulously moist and so easy to make you can throw together a batch of these with barely any notice at all. Don’t twist the biscuit cutter. Make sure to push the cutter straight down into the dough to create a clean cut where the layers can rise and become flaky. Twisting the cutter will smush the layers at the edges and they won’t be able to rise as well.

Add coconut cream mixture all at once and stir with a fork until the dough comes together in to a shaggy dough. Next, add the eggs and continue to mix until well combined (if the mixture looks liquidy at first, wait a couple minutes and the flour will absorb the liquid). Use a large-sized disher/cookie scoop to measure out dough (about 3 tablespoons) and drop onto a baking greased baking sheet. Hi I’m Alison Andrews! I love making delicious vegan food and creating delicious vegan versions of all your old favorite dishes, so you can have your vegan cake and eat it too! Simple pantry ingredients– you only need basic baking pantry ingredients to make this recipe for Monte Carlo biscuits, making this a very budget-friendlyrecipe!I’ve tried countless recipes over the years, some quite fiddly, searching for the perfect biscuit (or coconut macaroon as they are sometimes called). Bake for 12 minutes at 350°F. The edges will be firm and set but they will still be very soft in the middle. To make sweet biscuits or shortcakes add 2 tablespoons of sugar or a sweetener of your choice to the dough and sprinkle the tops with more sugar before baking them. Roll small balls about the size of a walnut and place a little distance apart on the baking tray. Press with a fork. Don’t over-work the dough. Keep some larger chunks of butter intact when cutting the butter into the flour. Knead the dough for 14 turns only. Any longer will work the dough too much and gluten strands will start to form, which will develop a tougher crumb structure in the final biscuits.

Large Spoon: for mixing, either wooden or metal, your preference. I personally don't like wooden spoons due to hygiene reasons. Remember that all ovens work slightly differently and bake times may need to be adjusted for your specific oven. Step 2 - Sift in the flour, baking powder, cocoa powder and cornstarch. Add in the coconut and mix until just combined.So happy to hear that you liked the recipe and that your family also enjoyed your baking.
