Nana's Custard XX

As I was sifting through the leaves of handwritten and cut-out magazine pieces from Nana's Recipe Drawer the other day, I spotted a familiar pattern - the blue and white bag of the bookshop she always gets her magazines from. Written on it, in Nana's scrupulously tidy handwriting (cough), was a recipe for Cudd xx... which I have translated into Custard Kisses!















The recipe was a little hard to decipher in places, but in the end I had two dozen gorgeous little golden cookies with (almost flouro) yellow custard filling.

Mmm cookies

I know the way to a man's heart is through his stomach because my early attempts to woo Neil (baked goodies for his lunches every day) obviously succeeded. An unfortunate side effect of this is having to drag myself into the kitchen every weekend to whip up a new batch of treats for 'elevenses' and 'fourses'. Pfft, who am I trying to kid... I LOVE those hours spent baking.

The latest treat was bill granger's Chocolate Peanut Chunk cookies. Now, after not one but two bill granger scone recipe disasters I was ready to avoid his baking recipes and just stick to the savoury meals... but I gave him one more chance. Glad I did... these were so good I even took some for my lunch.
