Here is an old recipe that I haven't made in years, it came to mind when I made the Earl Grey Tea Loaf I pinched from on here today. I will have to bake a few and put them in the freezer for those days when we are looking for something to go with...

- Sweeten your cardamom tea with honey, sugar, or stevia, if desired.
