VICKI BICKIES
My friend Vicki is from Australia, and my daughter Adiya adores her. Possibly the only thing she adores more than Vicki are Vicki's cookies (only kidding Vicki, she does love you more). These are basically ANZAC biscuits, but a bit different. Vicki uses slightly more coconut than what I've seen in the ANZAC biscuit recipes here on Zaar, and since golden syrup is hard to get here in Israel, she substitutes maple syrup. It's not often my Didi brings home recipes from other mothers, so take notice of this one, it's good! Thanks, Vicki, for sharing these with Didi (and me).

Tips:
- Choose the right ingredients: Use high-quality, fresh ingredients for the best results. Look for ripe bananas, creamy peanut butter, and semisweet chocolate chips.
- Be precise with measurements: Baking is a science, so it's important to measure your ingredients accurately. Use a kitchen scale for the most precise results.
- Don't overmix: Overmixing can make your cookies tough, so be careful not to overwork the dough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough: Chilling the dough before baking helps the cookies hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much.
- Bake at the right temperature: The oven temperature is critical for baking cookies. Bake at the temperature specified in the recipe and don't open the oven door during baking.
- Cool the cookies completely: Allow the cookies to cool completely before storing them. This helps them to set and develop their full flavor.
Conclusion:
These are just a few tips for making delicious chocolate chip peanut butter cookies. With a little practice, you'll be able to make perfect cookies every time. So get baking and enjoy the sweet rewards!
