How to Make Chocolate Anzac Biscuits

  1. Preheat oven to 160°C (320°F).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 2 cups rolled oats, 1 cup plain flour, ¾ cup caster sugar, and 1 cup desiccated coconut. Mix well to combine.
  3. In a small saucepan over low heat, melt 125g butter and ½ cup golden syrup, stirring until smooth and combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, stir together 2 tablespoons of boiling water and ½ teaspoon bicarbonate of soda. Immediately pour this mixture into the melted butter and syrup, stirring to combine.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Don't overmix.
  6. Line baking trays with baking paper. Drop rounded tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared trays, leaving some space between each biscuit for spreading.
  7. Gently flatten each biscuit slightly with a fork.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
  9. Allow biscuits to cool completely on the baking trays.
  10. Once cooled, melt 100g of chocolate. Spread approximately 1 tablespoon of melted chocolate onto the base of each biscuit. Place chocolate-side up onto a wire rack until set. Enjoy your delicious homemade Chocolate Anzac Biscuits!
