Who doesn't love enjoying a biscuit with a cup of tea? (Or two, or three) You can make these really simple and easy biscuits in no time and they are such a delicious treat. I've been having them with a chai and I can't get enough!
I used some cookie cutters to make the heart shapes, just a note that this mix is meant to crumble so you will not be able to roll it out flat like you would with a cookie dough. To use cookie cutters, I sectioned off some of the mix and rolled it into a ball using my hands, then flattened. I then placed it on the kitchen bench to cut out the shape and repeated with the rest of the mix.
You can certainly leave them round too :) If you don't wish to use tahini you can just substitute it with more peanut butter but I absolutely love the taste tahini adds.
Make a cup of tea and enjoy some of these tasty biscuits!
