These biscuits smell like what my granny’s kitchen smelt like – such a beautiful warm welcoming smell that wraps you up in a delicate warm and fuzzy feeling. What more could you ask for! These are so good that even my ever loving Pete who isn’t a biscuit person kept saying how fabulous they are.

Hi Line and Dot, thanks for stopping by. These really are fabulous and oh so moreish. Have a happy day. 🙂
Ooh now these look good! I don’t often make cookies/biscuits as the waistline is fighting a constant battle but these look so delicate and calorie free (ok, I am making that last bit up!) that I am sure just a couple would be positively good for me 🙂
Oh without a shadow of a doubt, these are absolutely and positively good for you. You see, the calories slip through all the tiny gaps so nothing to worry about. 😀 Have a beautiful day Tanya. 🙂 xo

My absolute favorite combo in a cookie, oats and chocolate! And these look so light, too. Just perfect! 🙂
These are absolute winners and almost get finished as they come out the oven Betsy. Have a super day. 🙂 xo
These look so delicious, Mandy! And you had me at the smell of granny’s kitchen. I could literally remember that so clearly. Perfect! And awesome pics, btw! 😉
Aaw, thanks Mike! Thank you too for the lovely compliment. Have an awesome day. 🙂 xo
Your biscuits are so perfectly sized. I remember going to my grandmother’s house and as soon as we walked in we could immediately smell her wonderful cooking xx
Thanks Charlie! Grannies homes always smell the best! Have an awesome day. 🙂 xo
Nothing like the aroma of a kitchen with cookies in the oven. These sound so very good, Mandy, and I was glad to read that they are virtually calorie free. You should try marketing them. The World is ready for a calorie free cookie … or biscuit. Look at me! I’m bilingual! 🙂
Bwahahaha – bilingual, you are so cool John! Imagine the money we could make on near calorie free cookie/biscuits which taste like these! Have a fabulous day. 🙂 xo
oh this looks so close to my oat choc chip cookies but different servings for the sugars. I will have to try yours as I am always looking to make the perfect cookie!
I bet your cookies are already perfect Belle. Have a beautiful day. 🙂 xo
How is it even possible to be ‘not a biscuit person’???! At least your darling has the sense to recognize that these are something special, but then having collected you he has already proven his perspicacity in regard to spotting specialness. 😀
xoxo!
