Ghraybeh is a sweet buttery and fluffy cookie that melts in the mouth like cotton candy. This sugar cookie only needs three ingredients: shortening/ghee, confederate sugar, and flour.
The Origin Of Cookies
In the 7th century, sugar became more commonly known to use. As a result of that, cookies were invented. “Cookies appear to have their origins in 7th century AD Persia, shortly after the use of sugar became relatively common in the region.”
Fun fact, cookies were discovered when bakers used little scopes of cake batter to test out in the oven, that is to see if the temperature is perfect for baking the cake. “According to culinary historians, the first historic record of cookies was their use as test cakes. A small amount of cake batter was baked to test the oven temperature.”
