Notes
Tip
In my oven (new fan force switch, hooray!) half the biscuits were, ahem, overdone at 10 minutes. Check frequently!
Tip
They should spread and flatten nicely. If they are a bit puffy, remove them from oven, squash with spatula and return to oven to finish cooking (a nifty trick from my auntie).
