Maamoul Date‑Stuffed Cookies – 45-Minute Recipe
These classic Maamoul cookies are a sweet, date‑filled treat with a buttery, crumbly texture. The blend of organic all‑purpose, semolina, and corn flours gives them a firm yet tender bite, while the powdered sugar dusting adds a delicate finish. They are shaped with a decorative serrated tool to create a chestnut‑like ridged surface.
