Australian Shortbread

2 cups rolled oats, 1 cup sugar, 1 small cup coconut, 1 tsp. baking powder, 1/4 lb butter, few almonds (if liked), 1 tbsp. golden syrup.

Mix dry ingredients together, add butter (melted) and golden syrup (just warm). Press into flat dish, cut in squares when nearly cold. Cook until golden brown, about 15 mins.
