I wanted to try some biscuits that my friend Ange had made. She put the recipe up on her blog, Dishedup, and they looked so great.
Once again though, I have a biscuit fail – I just never leave enough space to allow them to spread! They kind of merged into one another and became a blob.
They weren’t a terrible failure, they actually taste great, and are beautifully fudgey and soft on the inside – very rich though, you won’t want more than one at a time. The recipe says to use a tablespoon of mix for each one – I may have gotten carried away (I was getting tired and wanted to be finished), but would recommend using about a dessert spoon of mix for each biscuit – and allow lots of room for them to spread!
I had done two trays of them (the mix makes quite a few), and when I was sick of making individual biscuits, I decided to do a ‘biscuit loaf’’ – here’s how that turned out…not pretty. Hopefully though it will still taste ok. Bottom line, I don’t often make biscuits because I find making 2 dozen individual biscuits a pain in the arse. Ange, you obviously have more patience than me.
If people can be bothered making biscuits, these are good ones to try.

Looks like the brains from last night’s Masterchef!
But it’s still delicious. *lick*

I notice that you didn’t offer ME any to try when I was over earlier tonight! Damn you Biff, and your blogging ways!
