Directions
All biscuits in Albania are simple and can have sugar water added to them to form puddings. These butter biscuits use butter (homemade Albanian butter is amazing in this recipe!) and sugar to sweeten them.
We make these in the early evening, adding chocolate chips or marshmallows to them to make a treat snack with my children’s milk – warm, soft and chewy, you have to eat more then one.
Tip: Try adding chocolate chips, mini marshmallows or white chocolate!
