Ma'amoul Recipe - Nut Filled Cookies

Wednesday November 19, 2008
Ma'amoul is a cookie like, nut filled pastry. It can be filled with a variety of nuts, but is best made with walnuts, pistachios, or almonds. This recipe is not only easy, but delicious!

Ma'amoul is normally served during celebrations, but I sneak it in my home several times a year because they are just so good!

I have tried the Ma’amoul cookies twice. My wife loves them. I found them to be, well interesting. The first bite sucked all of the moisture out of my mouth, so have a glass of milk ready. I don’t think I rolled my dough out flat enough, I will try that the next time.
