ANZAC Biscuits
I fell in love with New Zealand after studying abroad in 2009. I have managed to recreate in my own way, the delicious ANZAC (Australian and New Zealand Army Corps) Biscuit to keep my travel memories alive through food! This cookie pairs perfectly with coffee in the morning as well as cumbled over vanilla ice cream at night!
