Recipe Notes

from Australia’s Best Recipes team

You can use malted or regular Milo in this recipe.

The mixture may be a little 'crumbly' in texture. This is normal - just roll into balls and flatten slightly with back of fork before baking. Biscuits will spread quite a lot so ensure space between each or make smaller ones.

Some reviewers have also suggested pressing more Milo onto the dough before baking for more flavour and this is recommended for more flavour. Sultanas are optional.
