  • My Auntie who lives alone but sometimes has neighbours call in for a cuppa would probably cook this as a slice and freeze part of it. If she buys muffin mix she cooks it as slice too.

  • I love the idea of adding polenta. It surely gives the cookies a wonderful yellowish colour.


    • The orange zest will make it a deeper yellow too :)
