RECIPE: MPs Blueberry Cookies

HISTORY:
We were gifted four of these precious homemade biscuits by a lovely Lady (MP) who lives out Ravenshoe way.
They were delicious, but had something in them we couldn’t quite work-out…

MP kindly shared her recipe, and due to the rainy weather and flooding around the Farm – which prevents the majority of outdoor activities – today the recipe has had its maiden voyage at Strigidae Farm.

Deeeelishhhhhhhous!!
Thanks MP! :D

(for some reason, this photo came out looking ‘anaemic’ – they were actually a lovely golden brown)

**NOTE**
When baking these cookies in humid/rainy weather, get them into an airtight container as soon as they’re cool, otherwise they go soft again, quite quickly!
