FREEZER BISCUITS WITH VARIATION
Ek het choc chip, cinnamon, cherry en gemmer gemaak.
Wanneer ek maak dan maak ek 2 rolle van 1 geur en deel die deeg vir die twee rolle. As ek 2 verskillende geure moet maak, dan half ek die bestanddele en maak 1 rol.

Sift again 1 cups of flour with 1 teaspoon baking powder in each mix and knead well.
Form in a roll, wrap in cling wrap and freeze.
