Ghorayebah (Butter Biscuits for Eid) image

This is a seasonal Sudanese cookie usually used for Eid celebrations. As I moved away, I took what reminded me of my home and family. You are surely free to bake them at any time of the year. This recipe was handed down to me by my mother.

These cookies are not worth the calories. They're just too rich and buttery.

These cookies are way too time-consuming to make. I don't think they're worth the effort.

I've tried this recipe several times and I can never seem to get the cookies to hold their shape. They always spread out too much.

These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but otherwise they were good.

These cookies are the perfect balance of sweet and savory. I love the addition of pistachios.

I'm not usually a fan of butter cookies, but these were surprisingly good! The hint of cardamom really makes them special.

Just tried this recipe for Eid and it was a hit! The cookies turned out perfectly crispy on the outside and soft and buttery on the inside.
