This recipe will yield you a dozen cookies
Today for the alphabet G lets travel towards Egypt. Ghorayebah pronounced as ghreybeh are shortbread or butter cookies from the arab world. These are baked with only three ingredients and I must say they are addictive. This recipe if from suma’s blog- Veggie Platter is very easy to follow and it was done pretty fast too
Since I refrain from eating baked goodies, I have to constantly on the look out for neighbours or guests whom I can give these. Luckily for me Valli dropped in with her kids and she tasted these and she liked it very much and she told me her son liked it too. So this recipe is a keeper.
