Impress your loved ones with the authentic recipe for date and pistachio maamouls, the traditional oriental biscuits essential for festive occasions! The secret to these perfect Lebanese pastries lies in a melt-in-your-mouth dough made from semolina and butter, delicately flavored with orange blossom water, which must be rubbed (sablé) without kneading. Filled with a generous date paste or a crunchy pistachio heart, these small stuffed cakes literally melt in your mouth. Shaped in their wooden molds for an authentic look and dusted with icing sugar, they are the ideal sweet, refined, and gourmet touch to accompany your tea or coffee!
