These are one of the best sweet treats I’ve ever eaten! They’re unbelievably delicious. The texture is incredible – a mix of gooey and chewy with crunchy bites of baked buckwheat in between. They’re sweet and chocolatey, but not too sickly and so easy to make too. The icing adds even more sweetness, but this is completely optional.
