Super easy crunchy Ovaltine Biscuits. These are nothing like the Ovaltine Cookies you get in a packet. Way better!
Ovaltine Biscuits
These quick and easy biscuits are sure to become your new family favourite.
I have to admit, I’m not a great baker. I think it’s the need for precision and an understanding of science that I lack. But anyway, I have made these cookies a heap of times now and they have worked perfectly every time! This pretty much means anyone is capable of making these.
ps. Do you know how hard it is to edit photos of biscuits late at night and not eat them all!

No need to discuss how to store these as they won’t be around for very long!
Although, I did just bake 12 biscuits and froze half the dough, then all you need to do is defrost and bake as per above.
