Afghan Biscuits
Typed by Michael ZL1ABS
Recipe from my mother [Beverly Sheffield].
Ingredients
1 1/2 Cup (6oz) plain Flour
1/2 Cup (2oz) corn flour
3/4 Cup (75g or 3oz) white Sugar
7 oz (180g) butter
3 tablespoons (1oz) baking Cocoa powder
Instructions
Cream the butter and Sugar (I put both in a mixing bowl with another
plastic bowl underneath containing boiling water from a kettle, to slowly
heat the butter & allow the sugar to be stirred in). Add flour, corn
flour, baking cocoa powder and lastly cornflakes.
Mix well (use large spoon).
Grease baking sheet (or line with parchment paper) and place biscuits
(Cookies for North Americans) on it for oven baking. One tablespoonful of
mixture per biscuit unless you desire larger biscuits!
Bake for 15 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius or 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
When cooled ice (frost) with icing sugar (confectioner's powdered sugar)
mixed with two teaspoons of baking cocoa. Melt a teaspoon of butter with a
minimum amount of boiling water and stir into the sugar mix. If the icing
is too runny add more powdered sugar.
A walnut may be stuck to the icing on each biscuit.
