How to Make Aunty Mata S Weetbix Biscuits

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking tray with baking paper.
  2. In a large bowl, crush the Weet-Bix into fine crumbs using a food processor or a rolling pin.
  3. Add the melted butter, sugar, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract to the crushed Weet-Bix. Mix well until thoroughly combined and a dough forms.
  4. Roll the dough into small balls (approximately 1 inch in diameter).
  5. Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking tray, leaving some space between each biscuit.
  6. Flatten each ball slightly with a fork, creating a criss-cross pattern.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  8. Remove from the oven and let the biscuits cool on the baking tray for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
