Egg and Wheat free Florentines

I have just finished making these florentines and they look amazing! I have had a little taste tester and they taste amazing too! I would definitely recommend these for anyone who is not allowed egg or wheat (like me!)

Florentines

  • Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup sultanas
  • 2 cups cornflakes
  • 100g slivered almonds
  • 100g chopped glace cherries
  • 2 tbs mixed peel
  • 2/3 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 250g good-quality dark chocolate
  • Method
  1. Step 1
    Preheat the oven to 170°C. Line 2 large baking trays with non-stick baking paper.
  2. Step 2
    Combine the sultanas, cornflakes, almonds, glace cherries, mixed peel and sweetened condensed milk in a bowl. Place spoonfuls of the mixture on baking trays, leaving enough room between each for biscuits to spread. Bake for 10 minutes until light golden brown, then set aside on a wire rack to cool.
  3. Step 3
    Melt the chocolate in a bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Set aside to cool slightly then spread over the underside of the florentines. Use a fork to make wiggly lines in the chocolate, then place, chocolate-side up, on a wire rack until set.
