These are so easy and quick to make, and kids can defenitely help making them too. It doesn’t take long for them to dissapear either! In the photo I used dried dill, but they are wonderful with the chives or pepper too. And remember, just like with the baking powder biscuits, you want you butter very cold so you get a nice texture.
