Place the flour into a bowl. Then, add fenugreek, musk, nutmeg, baking powder & yeast. Next, add the orange blossom water. Lastly, add the milk and butter mixture. Combine and knead the dough by hand.

Repeat the same procedure for the walnuts filling.

WITH DATES:

In a tray, place the dates with the butter and put it in the oven until the butter melts. Then grind them in a food processor.

FILLED COOKIES:

Divide the dough into small balls. Flatten it in the palm of your hand. Then stuff it with 1 teaspoon of the filling. Seal the edges and roll it into a ball.

Form the dough into the shapes you prefer. You can choose two different shapes in order to differentiate them from each other (depending on the filling).
