AUSTRALIAN FEDERATION BISCUITS

Australian Federation Biscuits image

This year is the Centenary of Federation of Australia, and this recipe was provided by the great-granddaughter of Henry and Isabella Parkes (your equivalent of a first lady). In Australia, we call them biscuits, rather than cookies, but they are well worth trying.

Yield 50

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

⅔ cup butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ cup hot water
1 ½ cups chopped pitted dates
1 ½ cups golden raisins
1 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup chopped walnuts

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). In a small bowl, dissolve baking soda in hot water. Stir in the dates and raisins; set aside.
In a medium bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the date and raisin mixture. Combine the flour and cinnamon; mix into the batter until just blended. Finally stir in the walnuts. Drop dough by tablespoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheet. Cookies should be at least 1 inch apart.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until lightly browned. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 2 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

FRESH FIGS WITH HONEY SAUCE

Fresh Figs With Honey Sauce image

Poach fresh figs with honey and spices for an incredible dessert. The sauce is very sweet, add a touch of balsamic vinegar if you prefer something less sweet. Cut a hole in the top of the fig so that the sauce can get inside, and the insides of the fig can combine with the sauce. Note this recipe only works with fresh figs, it will not reconstitute dried figs.
