Digestive Biscuits
Digestive biscuits are the perfect little companions for afternoon tea or as a snack in the office, making them a great little gift when wrapped up in brown paper and twine. They were shared with us by Sophia Handschuh from Thermomix Baking Blogger, originally featured in her book Homebaked. They will also make an absolutely awesome cheesecake base. The texture is perfectly crumbly and chewy thanks to the oatmeal.
