Just got back (to US) from NZ and Oz. On ANZAC day we were on a day trip to the Blue Mountains (Syndey). The drivers pulled out a tablecloth, hot water for tea and coffee, and ANZAC biscuits!!! What a treat! Didn’t find any roos, tho :(

I can’t believe someone got angry over Biscuits vs Cookies! Thank you for trying/tasting and learning about ANZAC cookies/biscuits. You also put a lot of effort into letting people know how to find Golden Syrup in the US which i thank you for. I took them to work to celebrate ANZAC day. I had to send out your recipe link to everyone! They were a huge hit.

Umm, its a NZ tradition too. Interestingly no-one knows if it originated from NZ or Aussie, although the recipe probably has it’s origins in the Oatmeal biscuits of the Old World.
ANZAC Biscuits are much nicer than Oatmeal biccies though!
I made 3 batches for work last night – they disappeared quickly! everyone seemed to come out of their hidden friday spaces :-)

Interesting fact, its illegal to call them Cookies

“The term ANZAC is protected under Australian law and therefore the word should not be used without permission from the Minister for Veterans’ Affairs; misuse can be legally enforced particularly for commercial purposes. There is a general exemption granted for ANZAC Biscuits, as long as these biscuits remain basically true to the original recipe and are both referred to and sold as ANZAC Biscuits and never as cookies.”

sok i wont tell ;)

Yeah, the term ‘ANZAC’ is a pretty important one down under, and people can be offended by its misuse.

Having said that, I think it’s great that this Australian tradition is being spread. They are yummy!

I’m glad you all seem to like Anzac BISCUITS .But anonymous at 6.07 am, you say you get Anzac cookies every time you go back to Sydney. Sorry, but that’s impossible. We don’t have Anzac cookies down under, we have Anzac biscuits or bickies. Not having a go at you, just trying to educate you people up there.

I made it on Saturday night and by Sunday night they were all gone. Thinking of making more tonight. They were so easy and delicious.
