Chocolate ANZAC Cookies

Chocolate ANZAC Cookies

1 cup plain flour
2 cups rolled oats
1 cup sugar
2 cups desiccated coconut
200 grams butter
1/4 cup golden syrup
1/4 cup water
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
250 grams dark or milk chocolate

Heat the oven to 180 degrees celsius and line a couple of oven trays with baking paper.

Add all of the dry ingredients into a large bowl.

In a small bowl, microwave the butter until it is melted. Add the water and golden syrup and heat again until the mixture is runny and easily combined.

Add the baking soda to the liquid mixture and mix it quickly. Then pour it into the dry ingredients and mix it really well. You might have to use your hands. The mixture will seem really wet and sticky, that's normal. Roll balls of dough, flattening them slightly after you put them on the tray. Bake each batch for 15 minutes.

Let the cookies cool. Then to finish, melt the chocolate in the microwave or over a double boiler and dip the bases in the chocolate. Then place them upside down until the chocolate has hardened.
