56. Cinnamon and Orange Biscuits (R.A. - Fave Food for Friends)

Rachel's Favourite Food for Friends 
Rating: 5/5 
Comment:  Great biscuits. Subtle flavour and lovely texture. I also use the ginger version of these.
Use it again: Yes.
Lovely recipes from this book: Chocolate Roulade with raspberries and cream, apple pudding, rhubarb pudding, lemon tea cake, raspberry and honey mascarpone tart. 
Average but still nice: Sweet corn and coriander cakes with tomato salsa, maple roast parsnips, jane's biscuits, cauliflower and cheese soup. 
Avoid: Chocolate fudge mousse, chocolate tart.

45. Wholemeal shortbread biscuits (Rachel Allen)

Rachel's Favourite food at home 
Rating: 3.2/5
Comment: Tasty enough but too healthy tasting for me. They have a good bit of wholemeal flour but the same large amount of butter as normal biscuits. Lovely with a bit of jam on top!
Use it again: Yes, but not on a regular basis.

Other nice recipes from this book: lemon biscuits, spicy salmon cakes, apple and cinnamon muffins, asparagus and spring onion tart.
Avoid: Upside-down rhubarb and ginger cake.
