Coconut Biscuits
Dear Aunt Daisy, I wonder if you could put a recipe for coconut biscuits in The Listener, as I very seldom get time to listen to your session-seven children, besides fowls and cows, take a lot of time in the mornings. I mean coconut biscuits like the ones we buy in shops. I have tried several recipes, but none of them are right. I was out to lunch a few days ago, and we had pork chops. They were so nice, I was rude enough to ask for the recipe, which I now pass on. Sicilian Pork Chops-One chop for each person; rub with salt and pepper, dip in a little lemon juice, then in grated cheese. Arrange them in a dish, put in a hot oven, brown them, and then reduce the heat. Cover, and cook slowly till tender. They were served with roast kumeras and apple quarters roasted with the chops.-‘A New Link" (Chertsey). The Sicilian Chops must be very tasty indeed. Here is a recipe for Coconut Biscuits, but are you able to get any coconut? It is very scarce at present, Coconut Biscuits: Four ounces of flour, 20z. of sugar, 40z. of coconut, a pinch of salt, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 30z. of butter and 1 egg.
