Afghan Biscuits











A favourite of New Zealanders. But why is it called an Afghan biscuit? Some theories are that they are similar to the craggy landscape of Afghanistan or  that a New Zealand woman sent it to her beau who was posted in Afghanistan during the war. There are many other theories but really, no one knows. These cookies are crunchy because they are made with cornflakes and oh so chocolatey.  I love the walnut in the middle. Yes, that was me, hunched over the walnut bin at the grocery store hunting for the whole ones.
