Ma’amoul are delicate, shortbread-like semolina or flour-based cookies filled with sweet dates, ground walnuts, or pistachios, often flavored with rosewater, orange blossom water, or mahlab (aromatic cherry seed spice). Pressed into decorative wooden molds and baked until golden, Palestinian Ma’amoul is especially popular during Eid, Christmas, and Easter, with variations found in Bethlehem, Ramallah, and Jerusalem. These festive cookies are often dusted with powdered sugar and served with Arabic coffee or tea.
