ANZAC BIKKIES
It is thought that Anzac biscuits were baked and enjoyed as far back as World War 1.
At this time, the biscuits were being baked by volunteers and sold to raise funds for the Australian and New Zealand armies (ANZAC - Australian New Zealand Ary Corps).
A similar type of biscuit was also sent overseas to the soldiers fighting in the war.
