Has to be Anzac biscuits!

1/2 cup each of flour, rolled oats. coconut. sugar
1/2 teas bicarbonate of soda

Then in a saucepan:
2 oz butter
2 tabs hot water
2 tabs golden syrup

Pour the melted mixture into the dry stuff.
Put little spoonfuls on a tray and flatten with a floured fork, oven at 170 for about 10 minutes (watch them!!! they burn ever so quickly).
