Description
Homemade treats for tea. Tender chocolate layers go perfectly with any jam, making this a rather versatile dessert. Great for home baking :) By the way, these pastries look appetizing enough to serve even at a festive table. I recommend saving this recipe. Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.
