Merry Christmas!
My final Christmas recipe for 2014... Thanks to all the family for these family recipes
If you dare to make these... you and your family will not be disappointed!
love and best wishes... Anna
Apricot Balls
1 Cup of desiccated coconut
1 Cup of chopped dried apricots
1 Cup of crushed cornflakes
1 Cup of chopped mixed nuts (Macadamias and Almonds works well)
1 Can of condensed milk
1 Tblspn of Golden Syrup
Carefully heat condensed milk and Syrup, allowing it to caramelise a little, don't let it catch and keep the heat gentle. If you only manage to heat the liquids and take off the stove, this will be fine. The heating and cooling process thickens the liquid somewhat.
Combine all the dry ingredients in a bowl. When the liquid has cooled a little, add it to the dry mix. Mix well
* Do not mix with hands until the mixture is cooler.
Roll into small balls, and refrigerate.
Keeps for about a week. Delicious.
Its nice to soak the fruit in some alcohol for Christmas
Honey Crackle
5 Cups of cornflakes
1Tblspn of Honey
3oz sugar
2oz of butter
Heat the sugar, butter, honey a little. You could even microwave. I like to make a syrup in a saucepan. Let it bubble for about a minute no more. Add to the cornflakes and mix well.
Bake in patty pans for about 5 minutes in an oven pre heated to 140. Its better to under cook than over cook these.
Tip. When they have cooled and set, you can steam the paper pan away CAREFULLY from kettle steam and enjoy.
