ANZAC BISCUITS WITH MACADAMIA NUTS
Something different; not tried so the time is just a guesstimate. You need to allow time for the toasted macadamia nuts to cool before cooking them; not sure how long that would take.

Steps:
- To toast nuts: Put them in an ungreased, shallow baking pan in a single layer. Bake at 325 for 3 - 5 minutes, stirring once halfway through (or just give the pan a good shake). Once you start smelling them or they are a golden brown, take them out of the oven. Don't leave them in the cooking pan; put into another cool pan/plate to cool. Chop them.
- Combine the flour, rolled oats, sugar, coconut and cooled macadamia nuts.
- In a small saucepan, combine the water, honey and baking soda. Bring to a boil, then stir in the butter. Set aside to cool for 5 minutes, then stir into the flour mixture with a wooden spoon.
- Place tablespoons of dough onto the cookie sheets lined with parchment. Flatten slightly with the back of the spoon. Leave a little room between cookies. Bake at 325 for 9 to 12 minutes (perhaps up to 15 min for crunchy). Remove from the baking sheet to cool on wire racks.

ANZAC BISCUITS WITH MACADAMIA NUTS
When the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps landed at Gallipoli on April 25, 1915, a legend was born. On Anzac Day every year, we pay homage, not only to the Anzacs, but to Australians who have fought in all wars. These biscuits are uniquely Australian and this recipe utilizes Macadamia Nuts, another Australian treasure.

Tips:
- Use good quality ingredients: This will make a big difference to the taste of your biscuits. Look for fresh, unsalted butter, golden caster sugar, and plain flour.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the biscuits tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: This will help the biscuits to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the biscuits in a preheated oven: This will help them to rise evenly.
- Don't overbake the biscuits: They should be golden brown around the edges but still soft in the center.
- Let the biscuits cool on a wire rack before serving: This will help them to crisp up.
Conclusion:
Anzac biscuits are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are a great way to use up leftover oats and coconut, and they can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
