"🍴Date shortbread cookies aka Maamoul cookies 🍴 these buttery, melt in your mouth with a delightful surprise of warm sweet date filling is what holidays in the Middle East are made of. Whether it’s Ramadan or Easter, if you’re celebrating then your home smells like these are baking in your oven. I just posted a recipe my mom uses that she did not learn from my grandmother but instead from my aunt. It calls for an untraditional ingredient that makes it so easy to manage the dough and no need to leave it overnight but still tastes like the real deal.
