Drunken Hobnobs

Kittie's Drunken Hobnobs!

Makes 24 hobnobs!

• 2 cups self-raising flour
• 2 cups sugar
• 2 cups porridge oats
• 250g butter
• 1 tbsp golden syrup
• 1 tbsp hot water
• 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda

Preheat oven to 180c.

Mix flour, oats and sugar together in a large mixing bowl.
Melt the butter, syrup and water in a pan - once melted stir in the bicarbonate of soda.
Add the butter mixture to the dry ingredients, and combine well.

Make smallish balls - about the size of a large unshelled walnut! Place it on a greased tray and flatten slightly.

Bake at 180oc for about 12 mins - they should be golden, not brown.

Allow them to cool on the tray.
If you put them on foil, you can transfer the foil to a wire rack... then they cool down more quickly... and then you can chow down even quicker! Bonus!
