I was looking through my Notes app recently and found this recipe I’d saved in 2014. Of course, I had to make it again and it was great – a very delicious, easy quick treat for the freezer box (my perennial healthy treat Tupperware container where I store all my baking. It avoids eating all the treats at once, plus they never go off…and there’s an on-going supply for kids, visitors and my afternoon tea).
I left out the orange essential oil as I didn’t have any, and my sesame seed supply was low so I topped up with sunflower seeds. I also played around with the add-ins depending on what I had. Feel free to do the same as it’s a good recipe for adapting.
(I have no idea where the recipe came from, sorry!).
