Tahini Biscuits

Combine all of the dry ingredients in a bowl and add to the creamed butter.

Form into small balls, dip into the sesame seeds and place onto a prepared baking tin. Use the tines of a fool to press the biscuit mix down somewhat.

Bake for 13-15 minutes before getting to one side to cool in the kitchen.
