When I make some of these delicious cookies it reminds of me of my mom when we used to make them for the holidays, they are the most famous and delicious cookies made in the middle east at that time of the year.
Every home you visit or bakery you walk by the aroma of butter and Ajwa (date paste) is in the air.
Ajwa is grinded dates that mixed with nutmeg and all spice; it is delicious in cakes and cookies.
