  1. Hi Orna, After a successful first attempt. Got a second batch in the oven at the moment. What a lekker (South African for good, amazing, brilliant etc.) recipe. Wow!!! That lady can bake! Going to check out all your other recipes. Thank you for sharing all your secrets. Best regards, Gary, Biggleswade, UK. Ex-Johannesburger.
    P.S. It would be selfish of me not to share your site.

  2. Made Almond, Orange and Cranberry Crispy cookies for the first time in a high school food service class too many years ago to want to admit. Friday's were usually often for new cookie exchange day. It was meant for exchanging cookies that were new to those exchanging cookies. That is how I learned of this delicious tasting, delicious looking to the eyes, delicious smelling to the nose. Thanks for sharing such a wonderful recipe!

  3. Hi From South Africa just came across ur recipes & would love to try ur Jam bars I was actually looking for one
    Very straight forward which I like I’m going to follow u in future 👏👏😊

  4. so the moment of testing..betae avon a friend teaches me to say….the chief taster says, "an mmmm?" I respond "practice makes perfect!" I am told, "Next time under closer supervision"…."Nice taste!" says she, "Yes!"….we agree and as the same friend taught me to say, "cool beans" bless you Purkin family and thank you..keep up the good work…10 out of 10 for great presentation…love the music

  5. Made a very big mess..you make it look so easy..my longsuffering and very dear wife came to the rescue and we anticipate a great outcome..thanks for your recipe, we've got our mouths set for crunchies, confident of giving a good report John

  6. This type of cookie is both a blessing and a curse. As a South African I can confirm this is the best cookie, it's delicious, affordable and are in every store but the sad thing is that it is ALWAYS sold out😭 it's 9 at night and I'm baking these because I'm tired of not finding them💎😂

  7. I've made crunchies for many years. Slightly different recipe. But lately they have not stayed crunchy when cool go a bit soft and chewy. Any tips?
