Ramadan kaak recipe
Recipes by Nadia
Last Ramadan was my first as a married woman. I had a menu for the entire month set two weeks before Ramadan even started! My husband was skeptical about what I planned to cook for dessert on the third day. I kept telling him that once he had a taste of my Ramadan kaak, he’d lick his fingers right after it. Let’s just say, he has never doubted my cooking skills since. Adopted from kiri Arabia.

You can use the special clip to decorate the cookies instead of the maamoul molds.
