INTRODUCTION
I love to eat rusks in bed on cold winter mornings. My husband loves to dunk them, but I’m not a fan of the yuckiness that becomes the bottom of your coffee, so I avoid that. These are crumblier rusks and are perfect for dunking or just eating.
I made this recipe on Expresso Morning Show a while back and the stylist cut them into really man-sized rusks, I prefer a smaller rusks that’s easy to put in your mouth. I double this recipe to make sure I only have to bake them once a week to keep everyone happy, of course I have a huge family and they go quickly. You may like to make a smaller batch.
