Melted biscuits [closed]

When I was young, my mother had us on a non-wheat non-sugar diet for reasons. So she made some sweet biscuits that were sugar-free (had honey or something in them instead of sugar - or something - not sugar-free i.e. simple carbs free, it was an allergy thing).

She forgets what she put in them or how she made them. I have no idea. But they melted across the tray, becoming flat and uniform, and when done they tasted like nothing I have ever eaten since. Any idea what the hell they were and how I can reproduce that melting/delicious effect?

Sounds a bit like a paleo version of Anzac biscuits. If not, please don't bite my head off, but here's the recipe I follow, although I don't recall where I obtained it originally;

Pre-heat oven to 150C

175g organic rolled oats

40g dessicated or flaked organic coconut

60g flaked or chopped almonds - or almond meal if preferred

2 1/2 tablespoons cold pressed olive, coconut or macadamia nut oil

2 tablespoons honey

1/2 teaspoon vanilla bean paste

1 tablespoon water

Mix it together in one big, gooey, mess, adding a little of the water if needed to help keep it together.

Form into balls, place on tray, then flatten with the back of a fork.

Chuck in the oven for 20-30 minutes or until golden brown.

*Note; Mine tend to come out very 'chewy', melty and more-ish, which is just the way I like them.

Why do we place the biscuits close together?

I believe the high sides of the pan and putting them close together helps them to climb against each other and bake up taller. You can be the judge of that. A sheet pan works as well!

Can you put undercooked biscuits back in the oven?

Problem eight: Once cooled, if I know my biscuits are underbaked can I put them back in the oven? Jo's solution: You can. Also, if you don't eat shortbread within a few days and they go soft, you can refresh them in the oven, too.

Why did my melting moments go flat?

The cookies will become more crumbly and crispy with a larger amount of cornstarch. However, the melting moments will become too dry if the amount of cornstarch is too large.

Should biscuits be baked close together?

When you set the biscuits on the baking sheet, make sure the sides are touching. As they bake, they will cling to each other, rising bigger and taller. A hot oven helps biscuits bake\u2014and rise\u2014quickly. We recommend 475\u02daF for 15 minutes.
