Easter pastry

So Easter is here, and as a tradition my family and I are used to making what we call "Maamoul" as in Easter sweet.. But since this year everyone is away from home, it was my mother's and my job to take on this task. We had so much fun making them hope you'll find them interesting and I have to add they're super Yummie and fun to eat..
So basically the dough made of wheat, flour, rose water, flower water, sugar, baking soda, water and butter (not sure about the scales since it was my moms job to make the dough).



Another essential to have are these lovely tools or molds that give the texture and shape to every piece of sweet. They come in so many size and form, these are the ones we have at home. Oh and every shape determine what the stuffing is. 



The first tells you the stuffing is nuts with sugar and the second has date in it.

This is the nuts and sugar stuffing and the date that I shaped as small balls to facilitate..


Then comes the stuffing..





Same thing with the nuts..

Mold


And put the pieces in tray..then into the oven...Here's what it'll look like





Finally sprinkle sugar powder and Voila :D



Happy Easter
