anzac's. almond biscuits but instead of putting an almond on top make an indentation with your thumb and full with jam before baking. Takes about ¼ tsp jam for each one. vanilla biscuits peanut brownies (if not allergic to peanuts) yo yoes rice bubble squares or make but add dried fruit, coconut, nuts and choc chips for a muesli bar like square. also make slices like ginger crunch. club fudge, louise cake or similar. favourite is the ginger crunch.

Cowboy Cookies - these are great and the recipe makes heaps oif bikkies that can be gladwrapped individually and frozen for lunchboxes. The recipe calls for 3 sticks of butter, which converts to 341g by the way. My husband doesn't like nuts, so you could add something else (fruit, white choc buttons etc)
The Edmond's cookbook is groaning with biscuit recipes and they are all pretty much made using the method you use for the two varieties you do bake so not even a stretch on your cooking skills.

my boys are loving the instant pudding biscuits that someone posted on here, easy to make and so easy to change the flavour by adding a different instant pudding each time they are made

WANAKA GINGERNUTS. 100g butter, 225g sugar, 1 egg, 1 tbsp golden syrup, 250g flour, 1 tsp baking soda, 3 tsp ground ginger. Preheat the oven to 170°C. Cream the butter and sugar.

Love the sound of this recipe but how do you get around the sweetened flaked coconut issue in NZ ? Have you found a source for it here?- I have lots of US cookbooks and always skip recipes with this ingredient.I bought a packet back from the US once and rationed it out but it is long gone!

Easiest biscuits in the world to make would have to be Anzac cookies and my kids love them but mine actually prefer cake or muffins in their lunch box because biscuits tend to get broken.I also prefer to give them things which don't adhere to their teeth quite as much as some of the stickier slices like muesli.
