Anzac Biscuits

Anzac biscuits were said to originate in world war 1. They keep for a long time and therefore were able to be sent by families to Australian and New Zealand (Anzac) soldiers serving in the trenches in France and Belgium or in Turkey. Well ,enough of History lesson, back to the predict, taste good but it is not easy to shape, I found that the recipes lack of something, I found it to crumbly, the recipes originally from Australian Embassy, the Hague by Peter Stephens.Well next time I have to do some adjustment, so I search again , I found out what is wrong, the recipe that I did, the source didn't add water,next time I will add some water in it. One more thing I add some raisins, well I didn't know it is so crumbly, next time, I am not going to put raisins , so make it easier to shape.

I post the recipes in here after the adjustment.
