Cardamom-Flavored Butter Biscuits

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 375u00b0F.

2. 2

   Combine the flour, sooji, chickpea flour, baking powder, and cardamom in a medium bowl. Mix together with a fork or dry whisk.

3. 3

   Put the butter and sugar in a large bowl. Using an electric beater, cream the two together until light and frothy. Add the flour mixture, then use your hands and a light touch to combine them and form a ball of dough. Break the ball into 24 equal parts and roll each into a ball. Make sure there are no cracks in the balls. Flatten the balls very slightly between your palms.

4. 4

   Grease a baking sheet with butter. Lay the slightly flattened balls on it about 1 1/2 inches apart. Cut shallow lines in the pattern of a tic-tac-toe grid on top of each biscuit without going right to the edge. Place a mixture of the nuts in the central square, pushing them down a bit so they do not roll off. Bake for 12-14 inutes (they will still be very soft), then set aside to cool on a sheet for 5 minutes. Using a fine spatula, carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in a flat, airtight container.
