Fast Flapjacks

I made these flapjacks quickly yesterday afternoon - why I hear you ask, when there was already chocolate cake, fruit cake and left over ginger cake on the table?!
Well, some of our Sikh friends do not eat egg, so I wanted to offer them an alternative. There are not many recipes in the book without eggs, so I am always glad to come across one.
I do already have a great flapjack recipe which contains condensed milk, and is delicious, so I was not sure these were going to be as good. I need not have worried, they were delicious, and even better after I had used the left over chocolate icing to dip them in!! Sorry - no photo, and I would go and take a picture of them, except that they are all gone. The last four went in the kids lunch boxes this morning. Actually all the cake from Adam's birthday has been eaten or distributed, which I consider a success!
Just a word about the flapjack, I needed to cook them for the full 35mins. Often I cook things for less than Mary says, but these needed the full time. Also, although she didn't suggest it, I used baking parchment as I wanted to be able to remove them easily. This was not a good idea as they were really quite greasy underneath, and I ended up blotting them all on some kitchen roll.
These scored 9.5, and were great, but beware, one is never enough!
