LEBANESE EASTER COOKIES



Lebanese Easter Cookies image

These cookies are made in my mom's home village of Baalbek, in Lebanon's Bekaa Valley, a week before Easter. They are such a hit, everyone asks for the recipe. They taste good and they're not hard to prepare, especially if you add the right ingredients.

Time 10h10m

Yield 60

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ½ pounds butter
4 cups white sugar
1 cup water
9 cups semolina flour
8 cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ tablespoons quick rise yeast
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
½ teaspoon ground cloves
½ teaspoon ground cardamom
½ teaspoon allspice
1 teaspoon ground mahleb
¼ cup black sesame seeds
¼ cup rose water
¼ cup orange flower water
1 cup warm water

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Stir in sugar and water; continue stirring to dissolve sugar. Do not boil. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  • Measure flours into a large bowl. Add melted butter, yeast, spices, and sesame seeds; stir slowly for about 10 minutes to thoroughly blend ingredients. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and leave dough in bowl to rest for 1 hour.
  • Prepare 3 baking sheets with cooking spray or parchment paper. In a small bowl, pour the rose water and orange flower water. Pour the warm water in to a second small bowl. Working on a floured board, pull off about 1 cup of dough. Dip your fingers first in the warm water and knead the dough a few minutes; then dip the dough in the flower water and knead it again until the dough is soft and pliable.
  • Use the palm of your hand to roll the ball of dough into a rope 12 inches long and 1 inch in diameter. Cut the rope in half and make a wreath-shaped cookie with each one, pinching the ends together. Place on a baking sheet. When you have filled a baking sheet, cover the cookies with a clean towel and refrigerate overnight to rest the dough.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Remove baking sheets from the refrigerator to warm up while the oven preheats. Bake cookies in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes.

Ghoraybeh (lebanese Shortbread Cookies) image

These are my all-time favorite cookies (and that's saying something) Light flavored, but buttery-rich, these cookies literally melt in your mouth. And, they're easy to make.

Time 25m

Yield 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup ghee or 1 cup clarified butter
1 cup powdered sugar
2 cups flour
1 tablespoon arak (Lebanese grape extract(strong licorice flavor)
1 pinch baking powder

Steps:

  • Mix butter, sugar, flour and baking powder and arak together.
  • Work into a dough.
  • Take a generous tablespoon of the dough and make it into a ball.
  • Press down into a circle.

MA'AMOUL (LEBANESE DATE COOKIES)



Ma'amoul (Lebanese Date Cookies) image

After a few phone calls with my mom and grandma, I managed to write a detailed recipe for one of my favorite Lebanese sweets, ma'amoul. They take time to make, but are not very difficult. Wooden ma'amoul molds give them their distinctive decorative shapes.

Provided by LauraF

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Middle Eastern     Lebanese

Time 9h35m

Yield 48

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups semolina flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon ground mahlab
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup clarified butter, at room temperature
5 tablespoons milk
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon active dry yeast
4 tablespoons orange blossom water, or more as needed
10 tablespoons date paste (such as Ziyad®), cut into small pieces
2 tablespoons powdered sugar, or to taste

Steps:

  • Mix semolina flour, all-purpose flour, mahlab, and salt together in a large bowl. Work clarified butter into the dry ingredients with your fingertips until thoroughly incorporated. Cover bowl and let dough rest at room temperature, 8 hours to overnight.
  • Pour milk into a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until just warm, about 15 seconds. Stir in sugar and yeast until dissolved. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
  • Pour yeast mixture and orange blossom water over the dough and mix until evenly moistened. Pinch off a piece of dough and roll into a ball; it should hold its shape without cracking. Add more milk or orange blossom water if needed. Cover and let rest for 15 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  • Sprinkle some flour over the ma'amoul molds and tap out the excess. Pinch off a walnut-sized piece of dough and roll into a ball. Press your thumb into the ball to create space for the filling. Work the edges with your fingers so the sides are even and fairly thin. Drop in a piece of date paste and pinch dough over it to seal.
  • Place cookie into the mold cavity seam-side up. Press down so that the top is flush with edges of the mold. Trim off any excess dough. Invert the mold and tap it against your work surface to release the cookie. Repeat with remaining dough and date paste, arranging cookies 1 inch apart on the baking sheets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven, 1 baking sheet at a time, until edges and bottoms are golden but tops are still mostly pale, about 15 minutes.
  • Sift powdered sugar over the cookies while still slightly warm. Let cool completely. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
