Coffee Biscuits

Biscuits

Ingredients

8 c cake flour
1 c sugar
500 g margarine (I use butter)
2 t bicarb
3 heaped t coffee powder disolved in 1/2 c boiling water
1/2 c golden syrup
1 t vanilla essence
Pinch of salt

Method

Beat butter and sugar together until creamy.
Mix bicarb with coffee and syrup. Stir into butter mixture.
Add flour and mix to a stiff dough.
Roll out and cut into shapes. Place onto a baking tin. Bake in a preheated oven @ 200 degrees C.

Filling

Ingredients

1/2 tin condensed milk
1/2 tin butter
1 c sugar

Method

Boil ingredients together until the mixture comes loose from the sides of the pan. It will take plus minus 20 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir 1 t vanilla essence into the mixture.

Sandwich the biscuits together with filling. You have to work fast as the filling will go hard when cold.
The filling is extremely hot, so take care not to burn.
