The texture is spongier than these crunchy cookies. <BR/>So I don't know if you are refering to the Klisha.<BR/><BR/>Are you interested to join us , I am organizing An Arabic Cooking Club, and inviting all Arabic / Middle Eastern cooks to join us.<BR/>if you are interested email me and we will talk more.<BR/>Thanks for stopping by.. take careArlettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02596891473316863494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3690212285672336035.post-63081764793839399802009-04-12T18:05:00.000-04:002009-04-12T18:05:00.000-04:00Arlette, you have a very nice blog.

Do they make these during Ramadan? In my province, almost every family makes these cookies during Ramadan. It could be another holiday, don't know for sure. But they call them 'kake'. I used to not like them when I was a kid, but now I really miss them and want to learn how to make them.Mediterranean Turkish Cookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11119693459213190159noreply@blogger.com
