Maamoul- Lebanese biscuits
And another new gadget in my kitchen. I tried it today and I was delighted with the taste of these cookies. Rose water gives them a wonderful taste, and date filling even better.
Preparation steps
- Mix flour, sugar, and both types of semolina together and add baking soda and salt.
- Butter and crisco should be at room temperature to make the dough easier to knead.
- Mix water and rose water together and now slowly knead the dough.
- You should leave the dough to stand for at least 10 hours. It is best to make it in the evening and make biscuits the next day.
- Make biscuits by tearing balls the size of a large walnut from the dough.
- The balls need to be thinned with the chest to make one hole in which you will put the filling. When you put the filling then close the ball with your fingers and put it in the mold. close the ball.
- With the help of the device I showed, you can make these cookies. If you don't have a device, you can make them in small paw molds.

- Peel a squash, grate it and chop finely.
