If you instantly reach for a Kingston biscuit when a pack of assorted creams are opened, you need this recipe. My homemade Kingston biscuits are a golden coconut and oat biscuit, sandwiched with a real chocolate cream centre. So much more enticing than the packaged version. Luckily the recipe yields enough to share.

Hi! I am Rachel and A Small Cup of Sugar is my FaceBook baking creation home.
Recently I've begun writing a cookbook to record my mother’s treasured recipes and in the process discovered my great passion for baking. I love bringing together simple ingredients with the help of my Thermomix to create delicious food. Whether it’s to nourish or indulge, you can find me in the kitchen preparing something to share with my family and friends.

I usually make my own biscuits but whilst we were away on holidays I nostalgically bought my children their first packet of Arnott’s Assorted Creams. After a little introduction, the girls enjoyed sampling the classic Australian biscuits. They were both allured by the chocolate filling of the Kingston and declared it to be their favourite.
After a lot of pestering to buy a packet of Kingston's, I decided I should try and make my own. My daughters were more than happy with my homemade Kingston biscuits. A golden coconut and oat cookie sandwiched together with creamy chocolate icing.

Hi Julie, I currently have some of these in the oven right now. As there are only the two of us, I'm wondering whether the biscuit mixture could be frozen (not the chocolate filling obviously)
Julie Carlyle says
Hi Cheryl
Thank you for your message. Yes the mixture can be frozen unbaked. The best way is to roll it into a sausage using plastic wrap. Then, when you want to bake the dough let it defrost. Cut the cookie dough into discs and bake as per normal.
Happy Cooking

Hey! Love this recipe! It did make a heap of icing which I have leftover. Any suggestions on what I could use the remainder for? How long will it keep? Thanks for the recipe x
Julie Carlyle says
Hi Caro
Iโm so pleased you liked the recipe. If you cover and refrigerate the remainder of the icing it can be used on any other baking.
Happy cooking
Julie
