Ingredients

125g organic butter, softened

¼ cup caster sugar

1/2 cup buckwheat flour

1/2 cup almond meal

¼ cup corn flour

2 tsp Gaia Botanica French Earl Grey, finely chopped

Preheat oven to 160 °C. Line 2 baking trays with silicone baking sheet (or baking paper). Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar in a bowl until creamy and pale. Add the egg yolk and beat until combined. Add flour, cornflour, tea leaves, and vanilla and stir until the mixture just forms. 

Portion the dough into tablespoon size biscuits and place on baking trays. Bake for 15 mins or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely. Dip the biscuits in the melted chocolate. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
