Bakers Tennis biscuits (2)

A little broken and crumbling but that is to be expected when shipping biscuits but tastes great still and served it’s purpose.

It’s the real tennis biscuits

This is good but expensive kinda take advantage the fact is they from 🇿🇦 I gave them 5 stars because the taste is the same

When these arrive they are almost always fairly broken in the package (25% of the biscuits). Fortunately I buy them for Cremora pie so I'm grinding them anyway but I'd be twisted if I bought them for serving as cookies. (if you get broken ones use them for cracker crust Cremora pie!) Update June 2021 I found Belvita coconut cookies. They seem to be higher in fiber and just as coconutty. I just crushed them and will try this for my cremora pie. It was less expensive than $7.50 per sleeve assuming you can find somewhere that carries them and they are in stock. Seems they always sell out first but good alternative to Tennis biscuits.

Wonderful to have South African Products We need the Rooibos beauty products also

South african piece of heaven

So...I watched a video on Youtube on how to make a pie that taste like cheesecake but made with Coffee Mate powder and these cookies made up the crust. Number one: alone...these cookies are fantastic, coconut nuances NOT overwhelming at all, crisp, crunchy and probably would be good with coffee but I was a little over kill and ate the entire package w/o telling anyone in my family I bought two packages! Oops...my bad. The recipe for the "tart", using these biscuits as the crust....2 cups of Coffee Mate, 1/2 cup of cold water - stir together until lumps are gone (about 4-5 minutes, I promise the lumps will go away)1 can of sweetened condensed milk and slowly incorporate 1/2 cup of lemon juice (either fresh or bottled will do). For the crust...crush an entire package of these Bakers Biscuits and incorporate 5 tbsp of melted unsalted butter - form the bottom of your tart, pie dish. Pour in the "tart" mixture and let it set overnight - THIS IS A MUST- it has to set overnight. Get ready to have your mind blown. It's fantastic!!!!!!

All reviews say the same thing. Shipped in plastic envelope with zero cushion / wrap. Was this intentional? Were they crumbs to begin with? I can think of no other reason. Maybe this is why they're so cheap. That said, these are famous for their use as delicious pie crust. So, I will be making key lime pie; milk tart; or similar. And that said again, I'll never be buying from this seller again.
