ANZAC Ice Cream Sandwiches

While everyone loves an ANZAC bickie, adding in your favourite ice cream takes them to the next level. These ice-cream sandwiches are perfect for parties – make the biscuits up in advance and take the ice cream out of the freezer to soften up just before serving and then it’s just a case of scooping and sandwiching together. Be warned though, things can get messy!

Note: Why not make a double batch of biscuits so you have a full bickie tin for your afternoon cuppa?

 

Time: 30 minutes

Serves: 16 biscuits

Ingredients:

  • 100g rolled (porridge) oats

  • 40g toasted coconut flakes

  • 150g plain (all-purpose) flour

  • pinch of salt flakes

  • 110g raw (Demerara) sugar

  • 120g unsalted butter

  • 2 tablespoons golden syrup

  • 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda (baking soda)

  • tub of your favourite ice cream, to serve

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line two baking trays with baking paper.

Mix together the oats, coconut flakes, flour, salt and sugar in a large bowl.

Melt together the butter and syrup in a saucepan over a low heat. Remove from the heat, stir in 2 tablespoons hot water, bicarbonate of soda and oat mixture and mix well to combine.

Take a teaspoonful of the mixture and roll into an even-shaped ball. Arrange all balls on the prepared baking trays, leaving 2cm or so between each one to allow for spreading when baking. Flatten the balls slightly using a wooden spoon or the palm of your hand, then bake for 15 minutes, or until golden but still a little soft. Leave to cool on a wire rack.

To serve, place a scoop of your favourite ice cream between two biscuits and sandwich together. Enjoy!
