Coconut and Hazelnut Biscuits

Since I am now on holidays the biscuit making falls more regularly on me, this is the recipe I made yesterday.

Coconut and Hazelnut Biscuits
4 oz cooking margarine (softened)
1 cup white sugar
1 egg
2 cups self-raising flour
1 cup coconut
1/4 or so hazelnut meal
a bit of milk

Cream the margarine and sugar, add the egg. All in together this fine weather mix in the rest of the ingredients. The amount of milk needed changes each time; you just need enough to make the mixture more workable. Roll into small balls and place on greased trays, cook in a moderate oven (180°C). Eat 🙂

The great thing about a basic biscuit recipe is that you can change it to suit what you have in the cupboard, for example the original recipe does not call for the hazelnut meal but I added that in and just added some more milk, other ideas would be dried chopped apricots or silvered almonds etc.
