These are some tips Bugs added,
I find this is too much salt and sugar, so reduce both, the sugar by about 1 1/2 ounces, salt by about half - it's probably completely unnecessary.

I also add more porridge oats - probably a good two ounces more, and more raisins. They're also nice with dried cherries and probably any other fruit, and you can add nuts and chocolate...hazlenut and chocolate go v well with the raisins. Basically it's very flexible. They're nice mid morning biscuits, or even breakfast ones, as they're basically muesli held together with cake mix!

I often make a double batch which lasts us a week of generous snacks for two people's packed lunches. It might last longer if you're less greedy.
