These yummy Afghan biscuits are quick and easy and perfect for kids lunchboxes.
My lovely Mum used to do a lot of baking when I was growing up. The days we got off the school bus and Mum told us she had done baking were great! Afghan biscuit’s were always a favorite and still are today.
I have topped my yummy Afghan Biscuits with coconut, only because my children do not like walnuts which you traditionally put on the top of Afghans.
These will keep in a airtight container for up to a week.
Enjoy
