You will adore all of these biscuits you bake. I am especially fond of the Holiday Split Seconds! Your Gran's Custard Biscuits sound great! Yumm! Thanks also for the comment re my arm. I am beginning to think now perhaps I have a fracture in my elbow as it just is not improving, not with anything. I think I need an x-ray! A very Blessed Christmas to you and yours also and all the best in 2016! xoxoMarie Raynerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407913432222377267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-53127646285656666802015-12-11T19:54:48.058+00:002015-12-11T19:54:48.058+00:00Hi Marie, Thanks for the wonderful selection of C...Hi Marie, Thanks for the wonderful selection of Christmas biscuits to bake, I have the Hermit Cookies and Glazed Jam biscuit dough resting in the fridge now, about to mix the Holiday Split Seconds.

In the recipe of Spicy Ginger Crackles you mention molasses among the ingredients. Yet in the instructions it disappears. So at what stage and where do I add it?

There's nothing worse than having your nice, sweet, innocent cooking blog become an adult site. Luckily my hubby is very computer smart and reinstated an older version of my blog. <br /><br />Love your blog by the way, and sure wish I had time to post as much as you do! Keep it up.

By the way, I was going through the links to blogs you like (found on the left hand site of this page) and found that the link to A Year From Oak Cottage has been hijacked by an adult x-rated site. You might want to delete this link.

It was in the Chronical Herald newspaper back when I was a girl. They used to put out a flyer every Christmas with recipes sent in by readers. I call them porkie pies because I reckon that is where "they" got the name from.
