Afternoon tea just isn’t a proper afternoon tea without some sweet biscuits on the side. If you’re hankering for the classics, a couple of Florentines in their chocolate-y nutty glory will do; as will some crumbly orange and almond shortbreads and melting moments with passionfruit cuurd. Want to kick it new school? The matcha crackle cookies or Christina Tosi’s Compost Cookies are the circular treats you need.
