A is for Angel Halo Biscuits

Angel Halo Biscuits

Every year around this time I start making a list of recipes for Christmas meals and treats that I want to try out.  I love looking through all the Christmas themed magazines and marking the ideas that I want to do this year.  That doesn't mean I always get through my list.  Often there is too many things on that list or as happened last year (and will probably happen again this year) I run out of time because we are moving house.

So when I came across the idea for Angel Halo Biscuits in the Christmas edition of Better Homes and Gardens magazine I knew I needed to give it a go as soon as possible.

It is a fairly simple recipe using ingredients that you will probably have in your pantry and quick to make which is handy if you have last minute guests popping in over the Christmas break.

These simple biscuits are equally delicious with a glass of cold milk or with a well deserved cup of tea.  I adapted the recipe slightly to suit our tastes.  I would recommend adding a little ground cinnamon or nutmeg if you want more of a Christmassy flavour boost.

6. Mix until a dough forms.
If the weather is warm when making these biscuits I would recommend putting the dough in the fridge for 10-15 minutes before rolling.

7. Take 1 and 1/2 tablespoons of dough and roll into a sausage shape on a lightly floured surface.  Be careful not to use too much flour for rolling or it will make the dough too dry and crumbly.  The dough sausage should be about 1 1/2 to 2cm wide.

8. Repeat with remaining dough.

9. Carefully shape the dough sausages into rings and place on the prepared baking trays.

10. Bake in the oven for 12 minutes or until firm.

11.  Cool slightly on trays before transferring to a cooling rack.

  4. I know I'm super-late to the party but DEP is an extra bit on memory page location that indicates rather contents stored xbox one jailbreak download are executable or not, so a program can load an image as non-executable and it won't be possible to run it. ASLR is what you're thinking of which is address space layout randomization. xbox 360 jailbreak download basically causes every module to load at a random page address making it difficult to hop between modules and to guess where common objects are.
