Yesterday we made some marvellous Cuban biscuits. We worked through the recipe together and used our weighing skills to measure the ingredients accurately. It gave us a good opportunity to practise our subtraction skills too- working out how much more sugar or flour we would need to add to reach the amount we needed.
It was a fun way to end our Cuba topic and the biscuits were delicious!
We followed this recipe (click the link to view it):

The English conversions for the ingredients are:
225g sugar
225g vegetable shortening (or margarine)
600g flour
1 1/2 teaspoons of lime peel, grated
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
Remember to work with an adult if you are cooking at home- you must be careful with hot or sharp items in the kitchen. Also remember to wash your hands before and after cooking!
These tropical lime-flavoured cookies smelled wonderful as we made them. They came out really well and looked and tasted beautiful!
Did you enjoy making the cookies? Did you enjoy eating them?!
