You can’t beat a good biscuit – together with a nice cup of tea (or glass of milk for the kiddos) it can turn a bad day into a bearable one with the first bite. The children and I first made these biscuits over half term and then Casper and I whipped up another batch this week when he was off school with an ear infection. I honestly think that just the delicious smell wafting through the kitchen did him as much good as all the spoonfuls of Calpol put together! If you don’t believe me, try them for yourself, quick and easy to make, they are the perfect mix of soft and crunchy – what’s not to love?
Daim biscuits:
(makes around 20-30 biscuits)
100 g butter (at room temperature)
80g caster sugar
1 tbsp vanilla essence
1 tbsp golden syrup
150 g plain flour
1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
2 regular Daim bars (crushed into small pieces with a pestle and mortar)
Mix all the ingredients in a bowl and knead into a dough. Divide in two pieces and roll into two long sausage shapes. Place them on a tray covered in baking parchment and flatten with your fingers. Bake in the oven at 175 C, for 12-15 minutes. Take out the tray and cut the biscuits diagonally before they have cooled.
Enjoy! X


Mmmmm I can almost smell them!!! xxx
They are so yummy. I actually think Daim works better in biscuits than as a chocolate bar! Xxx
Delicious recipe! I will give it a go, hope they will come out as good as yours π
I’m sure they will. The recipe is almost fool proof just keep an eye on the oven. Mine seems to be quite fast, only 10 minutes or so. Let me know how you get on. X
Thank you for the tip! π
Look delish!
They are! And almost all gone now so need to make more! X
Yummy!
They are delicious. X
Yum these look so good- and amazing with tea! YUM!
They are delicious -very more ish! X
Oh my…looks sinful!!! Xxx
Yes I was tempted to eat all of them by myself. Luckily the children wouldn’t let me! X
Looks good.
When I first saw the title I though they were called “damn” cookies and all I could think was that they must be THAT good! π
Ha ha too funny! They are that good though! X
Yum these look good
