I made these for DH since he was missing his sister's cookies. I only used 2 cups of flour & I made them into round cookies instead of S shapes. Made for Ramadan Tag

I am 22 years old, married, and have a beautiful daughter named Layla. I was born and raised in Ohio, but now live in the Virgin Islands. My family is from Palestine, and I have visited over the summers many, many times. I loveeee food from Palestine, so I've decided to share some of my favorite recipes with you. I hope you like!
