Like the Butterscotch Pudding in this one.

Thank-you


You get a 5 from me just for having the recipe, thanks for sharing i will be making this at christmas.


Oh WOW! These are great! I ALWAYS make gingerbread men for xmas and thought I would try this recipe instead of my usual. They went down a treat! I've uploaded a photo. (Sadly ginger-bread man cutter has vanished, so had to make do with trees/stars/snowmen).
- just a tip when icing is to add choc drops for eyes etc AS SOON as the biscuits come out of the oven. That way they melt slightly and stick on- which is much easier then sticking them with icing :)


Gran loved them!


My kids are gonna love this. 5 fork from me. Thanks for the great post!
