I love Cranberry and Macadamia Nut Mix at Christmas and just had to get it into a biscuit!! (For those of you in Britain, Tesco's Cranberry and Macadamia mix is great for these, 1 160g bag!) I think putting mix into a jar as a gift is just wonderful and these biscuits are so good I think I will make one as a present for myself!!!
