Hello Geoff, Thank you for all the wonderful recipes. So many old familiar favourites that I remember from earlier days of family gatherings and home, but for which I never had the recipes. I have great difficulty finding bourbon cream cookies, for example, a favourite cookie of mine out here in Victoria, BC and am thrilled to learn how to bake them. I do have a number of traditional favourites handed down from grandmothers and aunts, but it’s interesting to compare the little differences in traditional puddings and cakes. You explain and demonstrate the baking of the different items very well. I look forward to making them. I’ll be writing out so many of the recipes, I’ll almost double the size of my recipe box! Thank you so much again. May you continue to share wonderful recipes, British ones in particular, for many more years to come, now that I’ve just found you. (Even though you have been doing this for seven years.)😊 Happy baking! Kathryn
Hi Kathryn. You are very welcome. I am glad you have found some recipes that you wish to try. Just for information, in case it helps. If you click the link provided below each video you will be taken to the written recipe on my blog. There is a button on the most recent recipes(since I transferred the blog to a new platform last June) that you can click to print the recipe should you wish to do so.
Geoff I really appreciate you making eggless recipes, because I get a migraine if I eat something that it had eggs in it and I baked it a day or two ago.
Hi Geoff, I made your apricot shortbread jam wedges, it was very simple and very delicious, my son couldn't get enough of it, thank you for sharing your delicious recipe with us. I always look forward to your videos.
They look better than the famous oaty biscuits you get in supermarkets, Geoff. Are rolled oats another name for porridge oats or are they different? Thanks for another brilliant video. 👍👍👍
HI Ray. Thanks. Rolled oats are porridge oats. If you look the the supermarket at Quaker and Scott's it says rolled oats. You can also get quick or instant porridge oats, not quite the same but they will work. There is also old fashioned rolled oats, but they are larger oats, not having been broken down. They would work, but it is better to process them a little to make them smaller.
Can't see that you've ever done Welsh Cakes on your channel. They're delicious and so easy. Technically not baking as you fry them but they're a really easy and wonderful snack that you can do with fruit or jam. Being Welsh I am biased though.
Oh I vote eat as is and save the chocolate for another day as they look great as is right out of the oven! However I wouldn't turn them down if offered to me with the yummy chocolate on them either...Thankyou...I'll order a dozen please! haha I guess I'll have to get the oven on.
Fantastic recipe ..they look great ..I was going to ask how long would they keep for ? I guess they would dissapear fast enough . Lovely with a coffee after a small walk . Sir Barney approves .
Hi Geoff, Wishing you a happy new year. I’m going to make these tomorrow, love your homemade biscuits and these look very nice 🍪 ☕️ just wondering if I could also make some using gluten-free flour? Would be for my son, would be good if I could. Thank you, Janet 🙂🌈
HI Janet. I hope you enjoy the biscuits. I have never used gluten-free flour, but I think it would probably work fine, though the biscuits might be a little more crumbly. I read that a little xanthan gum helps bind the structure, though again I have never used that. Happy New Year to you too.
Hi Henrietta, My New Year's resolution was to not increase my weight by more that 4 stone between now and my birthday in a month. I am keeping well within that.
Do the biscuits, unfrosted, taste like Hob Nobs? I adored them when we honeymooned in England and Scotland many moons ago. It took us forever to get the crumbs out of the car! I'm still looking for a taste-alike recipe after all these years (34!). I have occasionally bought them in the larger grocery chains here in the US or a pen friend from Hull sent me some once.
Hi Karen, Yes I think they do taste quite like Hob Nobs, though probably not quite as sweet. I haven't actually bought them for many years so I can't be sure. They make chocolate Hob Nobs too these days.

Thanks, Geoff, a lovely biscuit x
Hi Eureka Lass. Thanks, they are very nice.
Geoff I really appreciate you making eggless recipes, because I get a migraine if I eat something that it had eggs in it and I baked it a day or two ago.
HI Farida Aminy. That's a shame. But at least these biscuits won't cause that problem, with our without chocolate.
I've always believed in giving into temptation and these look very tempting 🤔. Cheers Geoff
HI Graham. I think that is the best approach.
Hi Geoff, I made your apricot shortbread jam wedges, it was very simple and very delicious, my son couldn't get enough of it, thank you for sharing your delicious recipe with us. I always look forward to your videos.
HI Farida Aminy. That's great I am glad you found the recipe easy, and that your son, in particular, enjoyed it.
Yum, I bet them caramel ones were delicious 😋
Hi Colleen. I must admit they are, or were, great. I love the caramel chocolate.
Another great cookie, love Oatmeal 😍👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

HI Gareth. I made Welsh Cakes about 6 months ago. Very tasty indeed. ua-cam.com/video/xLNpcXPyPVc/v-deo.html

Hi Julie-joy. They are very good indeed without the chocolate. Great too, with the chocolate. Get baking.
Fantastic recipe ..they look great ..I was going to ask how long would they keep for ? I guess they would dissapear fast enough . Lovely with a coffee after a small walk . Sir Barney approves .
HI Hugh & Sir Bareey. Thanks very mudh. The biscuits will keep for a good few days, if stored in an airtight container.
Hi Geoff, Wishing you a happy new year.

Hi! The golden syrup is 40 grams (2 tbsp ) right?
Yes, I put a caption on the video 40g(2tbsp) as I mis-spoke in the video. 'the written recipe on my blog has all the ingredients.
Do the biscuits, unfrosted, taste like Hob Nobs? I adored them when we honeymooned in England and Scotland many moons ago. It took us forever to get the crumbs out of the car! I'm still looking for a taste-alike recipe after all these years (34!). I have occasionally bought them in the larger grocery chains here in the US or a pen friend from Hull sent me some once.

@@geoffsbakingblog I love when I find a 'must try now!' recipe on my days off. I'll let you know how I make out!
@@karenstewart8818 That's great. I look forward to hearing how you like them.
