Recipe: Choc Chip Anzac Slice

I decided to make anzac slice for Anzac Day instead of cookies as I only like soft chewwy cookies but when I bake cookies I tend to make them crunchy. This way I knew I would be getting that soft texture I wanted. I added choc chips for extra yumminess.

2 TBS Rice Malt Syrup (or Golden Syrup)

2) Combine flour, oats, sugar and coconut in a large bowl. Make a well in the centre.
3) Place butter and syrup in a saucepan over low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes or until smooth. Combine the bicarb soda and boiling water in a jug.
4) Remove butter mixture from heat. Stir in bicarb soda mixture. Add to flour mixture and combine. Stir in choc chips.
