"Very tasty chicken dish; I couldn't find thighs, so used marylands. I agree with others that it was very rich, and would also use less cream cheese next time. Perfect meal for a summer day, even in 38C heat (I'm in Australia.) I would also use thigh fillets or breast next time as, being boneless, they are easier for the children to eat. A new favourite."

"Mixed reactions here. Husband loves them and is having trouble stopping himself eating an obscene amount of them (I doubled the recipe.) Children found them lacking in flavour. I really like them. The strongest flavour, in my opinion, is of the custard powder, and perhaps a little of the bi-carb soda. I imagined they'd be a lot sweeter, more like an ANZAC biscuit, but the custard powder seems to have reduced that golden-syrup sweetness considerably. I got tired of rolling into balls, so put half the mixture into a slice tin - much easier. I would make these again but would reduce the bi-carb soda to around half. Also, mine weren't at all crunchy; not sure why but I'm happy with that as we prefer a softer biscuit."

"To andycrofts: I am the Aussie "bloke" you refer to. Please don't refer to me as a bloke again! I am female, (and a very feminine one at that!) not male, and it's bad enough to be called "mate", but bloke is really below the belt. Definitely not what the Australian woman likes to be called!"

"Finally got around to making this and it received the thumbs up from all of us. After 3 hours cooking, the meat was still a little tough, so I left it in the oven for a little longer, and, to be honest, I actually forgot about it! So it ended up cooking for 4 1/2 hours, by which time the meat was so tender and the sauce was quite thick as it had reduced. I didn't make the dumplings as we're watching our carb intake, so served it with sweet potato and pumpkin mash (full of carbs, yes, but at least they're sort of "good" carbs!) I'll definitely make this again. "

"NaomiA - Thanks for your reply and tips. Just last week, I came across this recipe in the Australian edition of BBC Good Food magazine, and the recipe does specify 750mls of wine. So looking forward to trying it. Thanks again."
