Okay, long story. But basically I need to cook some biscuits for tomorrow.


Now I can't cook at all, so does anyone have any really easy recipes?


Preferably chocolate ones :]


Oh, and it can't take too long because i have to revise tonight too. But yeah, thanks in advance.Biscuit Recipes?
Parmesan Popovers

3/4 cups all-purpose flour


1/4 teaspoon salt


1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper


1/2 teaspoon herbs de Provence


4 tablespoons chopped parsley leaves


1 cups whole milk


3/4 cup grated Parmesan (about 5 ounces)


Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.


In a blender, combine eggs, flour, salt, pepper, and herbs, milk, and cheese. Blend on medium speed.


Spray a mini-muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray. Pour the batter into the muffin cups, filling each cup 3/4 full. Bake until puffed and golden brown, about 20 to 25 minutes.


Remove popovers from muffin tin and cool on a wire rack. Save in a storage container to take to the picnic.Biscuit Recipes?

Method


1. Pre-heat oven to 127oC


2. Line a baking tray with greese proof


3. Beat the Butter untill soft then add with the other ingrediants. You should have a dough by now if not add a bit more icing sugar this will help with the ';melt in your mouth';


4. Roll the dough into small balls %26amp; place them on the baking tray about 2 cm apart they won't spread much but make sure you have an even amount as you are going to sandwiche them together


5. Using a wet fork flatten the balls into cookie shapes then put them in the oven for 10-12 mins


6. When they are cooked take them out %26amp; leave them to cool


7. Sandwiche the biscuits together with chocolate spread.


For an optional treat drizzle icing into the grooves the fork made.
2 cups Bisquick, 1/2 cup milk. Stir. Drop onto cookie sheet by spoonfuls or roll out %26amp; cut into circular disks.

Hedgehog Slice





Though I guess not actually a biscuit at all, this slice is made from biscuits and required (my favourite part) no cooking whatsoever... unless you consider the melting of margarine or butter as cooking. Great for kids, this recipe only requires minimum cooking experience and shelf space in the fridge


Biscuit Ingredients





250g Plain biscuits (coffee biscuits, cheap shortbread, etc)


1 cup Desiccated coconut


1/2 cup Cocoa


250g Cooking butter or margarine


1 tin Sweetened condensed milk





Icing Ingredients





1/2 cup Icing sugar


1 tablet Chocolate


Crushed nuts to decorate


Method





Crush the biscuits into they are only crumbs. Don't worry about large pieces left over, they add texture to the final product, but do try to make sure that most of the biscuit is crushed down to crumbs. Best method for crushing is putting a few biscuits in a plastic bag and either rolling over them with a rolling pin or crushing them with the back of a spoon. Using you hands leads to more mess, inconsistent crumbs and is just plain disgusting





Throw all the dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl.





Melt the butter/margarine (easiest in the microwave) and cut into smaller pieces so that it melts quicker. Note: if melted in the microwave to remember to place a paper towel over the container... fatty things tend to spit in the microwave.





Pour melted butter into a well (a hole made in the dry ingredients) and mix thoroughly. You should get dry clumps of a bread crumb consistency.





Pour in the sweetened condensed milk and mix in. Now the mixture will stick together. Time for the fridge.





Spread ingredients out in a slice tray (long shallow tray). Level out and pat down the ingredients with the back f your spoon as much as possible and put in the fridge for an hour or two. It will be ready to slice when it's rock hard and you can't make a dent with your finger.





For the icing, mix dry ingredients with a little water until you have a thick paste. Spread this over the top of your slice and then cut into squares for storage or eating.





Always store in the fridge... unless you decide it's better stored in your stomach of course

Chocolate Chip Cookies





This is a favorite cookie recipe of mine. With that in mind, I made the cookies as an entry in the culinary competition at the Western Montana Fair in August of 2001. They won Honorable Mention - not good enough to win first class. The strange thing, though, is that my entries were entirely eaten; the first, second, and third class entries were still intact on their presentation trays. Go figure.


Ingredients





2.25 cups Flour


1tsp Baking soda


1/2tsp Salt


3/4 cup Vegetable shortening or butter


3/4 cup Sugar


3/4 cup Brown sugar


2 Eggs


1tsp Vanilla


2 cups Chocolate chips


Method





Preheat oven to 375掳 Fahrenheit.





Stir together dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, and salt).





In a separate bowl add cream shortening, sugar, and brown sugar.





Mix in the eggs and vanilla and beat well. Then add the flour mixture in thirds and thoroughly incorporate.





It should be a really sticky, thick dough. Add the chips last.





Drop by spoonfuls onto cookie sheets and bake for 9-11 minutes or until golden brown.





Makes about two to three dozen cookies, depending on how much of the dough you eat!








Hope one of these will be of use.
