Here’s another recipe from the archives at work:

These are for ladyfinger biscuits. They are very similar  (close to identical in taste and

texture to bouidour biscuits), but a whole lot cheaper.

Ladyfinger Biscuits

115g white bread flour

3x57g sugar

6 eggs, separated

85g maizena

Beat 1x57g sugar plus the egg yolks until pale and fluffy

Beat 1x57g sugar with the eggwhites until frothy and doubled in size

(about 2 minutes)

Mix 1x57g sugar with the maizena, slowly add to egg whites and beat until

stiff (same as meringues)

Fold yolk mixture & White mixture gently together, sift over flour and fold in

Pipe 5cm biscuits with a plain 10mm plain tip onto a greased baking pan

Bake at 210C for about 8 minutes.

Allow to cool and store in a airtight container

Enjoy
