When you put a T beside an amount I presume this is a tablespoon?

 

[rmhowarth]

am I the only one driven mad by the use of American recipes on Australian sites? Graham crackers , for example, I have never seen or tasted. I am not sure if they are salty or sweet , and perhaps if I knew I could find a substitute . Tinned cranberries ? not on most supermarket shelves here. I have packets of dried ones available . It makes doing one of these recipes quite unreliable and who wants that at Christmas?

What are the quantities referred to in this recipe? The ingredients read well but unless the quantities can be measured, who knows what we will turn up with.

 

[Suzy Q]

You can use digestive biscuits or Marie biscuit, but I agree with your statement what’s the use of these recipes if you can’t get the ingredients.l had a recipe which needed corn syrup which is American I did find some in an IGA store but only in that one store, cost me $8 over there it’s only 2 or 3 dollars.
