Who ever said ANZAC biscuits had to be made into biscuits?!! Its just as good in a slice too!
This is so yummy, chewy around the edges but soft in the middle. Of course being ThermoFun I just had to drizzle some chocolate on top too! :)
Do you know the meaning behind ANZAC biscuits?
It has been claimed the biscuits were sent by wives to soldiers abroad because the ingredients did not spoil easily and the biscuits kept well during naval transportation.

Jean Misko says
I've just made these for the first time. As we have become used to only a little sugar I halved the amount in the slice. I tasted it before I baked it and it seemed sweet enough for us.
I love some of the variations suggested and will be trying lots of them in the future.

Thanks for the comment Jean :D Look forward to hearing about your other variations :D
Myree says

thermofun says

As I made this for the umpteenth time today I realised this has become my go to slice! As I like it to be relatively thin, this quantity makes enough to fill two slice trays - winner! I love the versatility of it too. Today I put silvered almonds and choc chips in it, and still put the chocolate on the top. A double dose of chocolate can't hurt! I have used other nuts as well as the macadamias, and grated orange rind is nice in it too. Great recipe, thanks, Leonie
thermofun says
oh yum I love your variations Annette. Great idea re the two slice trays too! And yes of course can never have too much chocolate! :)
Benny says
I made this for ANZAC weekend and took it to work on Monday. The staff said they were going to nominate me for MKR. Scored a 10 with all. Thanks, will keep this one in the favourites.
