biscuit recipe?

[adrian_turtle]

Once upon a time, I saw a recipe here, on this very computer screen! Probably on dreamwidth. Whose Dreamwidth? No clue. I don't read hundreds of them. I didn't make it when I saw it, and it is impossible to search for because it was a recipe for tahini biscuits. Biscuits in the sense of the American biscuits you make with flour and baking powder, cut in butter to make crumbs, add milk to make dough you can roll out, then cut and bake. This recipe used tahini to replace (some of?) the butter and milk, but I have no idea what the proportions are. I am not a sufficiently experienced biscuit-maker to rely on "the dough feels right."

And of course, any search for "tahini biscuit" returns acres of cookies. Some of them may be delicious, but they are not what I'm looking for. Any suggestions?

Hm. I follow a number of recipe blogs where they use nut butter or tahini instead of oil, but I don't have enough experience with doing that to know the proportions. I did some web searching using alternate words, but didn't find anything that looked like exactly what you had in mind. I will keep an eye out and let you know if I spot anything.

Thanks! I had an idea (described just above), inspired by a James Beard recipe that is not tahini or even vegan. But I won't be trying it for more than a week. And other recipes are very welcome if you run across them.
