Finally I've tried Milo Biscuits too! I simply loved them!
For those who do not know what Milo is, I can simply say it is a chocolate and malt powder that is mixed with hot or cold water or milk and it produces a very popular beverage now known all over the world with the name of Milo.
Milo is very popular in Australia, Malaysia and New Zealand. In these places a large variety of products have been created using this chocolate malt powder, from chocolate bars to cookies, from UHT beverage to very popular energy drinks.
Actually Nestlè - who produces Milo - claims it offers essential vitamins and minerals and it has long been known as an energy beverage strongly associated with sports and good health.
But I won't be so sure it is so healthy...
Making your home-made Milo instead will allow you to have healthier biscuits which are also very easy to make at home with your Thermomix! I thought they were wonderful! I ate them for breakfast and afternoon tea, but I also add them to my daughters' lunch boxes! Perfect!!
I took the first recipe from the Australian recipe community where it was posted by Sarah Foley (Thermoamazing). I found the second recipe on Thermomixreviews blog by Sarah Schmeri who in turn used a recipe from the Thermomix Forum.
The first one is simpler while the second one includes also oats and desiccated coconut.
