Anzac Biscuits

Anzac day, a fitting day to make Anzac biscuits! I've never eating too much Anzac biscuits in my lifetime but I do find them quite tasty (apart from choking on the desiccated coconut). The recipe is quite simple and probably the easiest cookie I've made to date! I noticed that the cookies do not spread much when baked, so I had to manually flatten them. For a softer biscuit, flatten less and bake for less. Vice versa for a crunchier biscuit.
