These bickies are a huge hit in our family. Crisp and buttery with a delicious crunch of Smarties, mini M & M’s or choc chips make them very moreish!
Since a bag of Smarties won’t escape chocolate eagle eyes in our house, I often use Blackwood Lane Rainbow Choc Chips, available from supermarkets. This recipe was developed for the TM31.

I've never attempted making biscuits before. I'm going to make these. I'm sure Amelie will love them!
It could be that I haven't had dinner just yet…but I am drooooooling over these bickies! They look awesome. I too detest multinational companies. It is such a tragedy we lost our Peter's factory excursions for WA kids – I'm a teacher. They were so interesting and the kids got a treat at the end.
Make some Thermie ice-cream it's fab!

Hi Jude!!
Yes, I do make Thermomix Icecream, but my nearest and dearest likes {shudder} bought icecream!! Also, bought tomato sauce, bread, chutney, jam.
Here I am beating my head against a brick wall!!
