I was so excited when the folks from Gefen/Kedem asked me to work with some of their products. I had always thought of Kedem Tea Biscuits as just “tea biscuits”. Well, surprise! I ground them up, added some chopped nuts, sugar, cocoa and Bourbon and voila- a boozey dessert cookie to finish off your meal! Add to that-there’s no baking involved. Kedem has done the baking. You just add the other ingredients and roll them into cookies with your hands!
Prep time: 30 minutes
Note: The wrapper for the plain tea biscuits was torn so we used the wrapper for the chocolate biscuits in the shot. Leave out the cocoa if you make this recipe with chocolate biscuits.
