These biscuits were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I was a bit skeptical about the use of cardamom in these biscuits, but I'm so glad I tried them! The cardamom flavor was perfectly balanced and really complemented the pistachios. These biscuits are a new favorite in my house.

These Afghan biscuits were a delightful surprise! The combination of cardamom and pistachios made them incredibly flavorful and aromatic. They were also very easy to make, and I loved that I could use ingredients I already had on hand.
