Chewy coconut cookies (Anzac biscuits)
- Published: 31 Aug 19

In Australia, Anzac Day (on 25 April) is commemorated with these coconut cookies. The biscuits were sent by wives and women’s groups to soldiers abroad because the ingredients do not spoil easily and the biscuits kept well during naval transportation.

The crisp-around-the-edges and chewy-in-the-centre cookies have great dunkability, making them perfect with a cup of tea.
