Two flavours that match each other perfectly!
These biscuits are great for a little tea time, on a Sunday afternoon. Super easy, fragrant, and delicious. It is a crowd-pleaser for sure.

    Add the egg and mix it again until the ingredients are integrated.

  6. 6

    Dust a flat surface with flour and roll the dough until it is around 5 mm thick.

  7. 7

    Cut the biscuits with the help of a cutter, or if you don't have one, you can use a knife and make rectangles as well as using any shapes to cut the biscuits. Just make sure to keep the size the same so they bake evenly.

  8. 8

    Arrange them in a baking tin lined with baking paper, make sure they don't touch each other, and have enough space to expand. Place it in the oven at 180 degrees until the edges of the biscuits are golden brown. Approximately 15 minutes.

  9. 9

    If you want, you can use lime or lemon zest instead of the cardamom and orange version, it tastes delicious too. ENJOY!!

It doesn't happen anymore, I have to do it now, for myself and for my family. I feed everyone!Here you will find some of those old recipes and some new ones.Also, you will see that my cooking skills come with nice food photos too.See you in the kitchen!
