Mustachudo (Nut Cookie)
(1 ratings)Posted by:jrt
This nut cookie comes from Turkey and Greece and is a great choice for Passover. This recipe is pretty straightforward, though I’ve seen others that involve cooking the ingredients on the stove top until the mix firms then shaping into little balls rolled in sugar or cinnamon. Either way, they taste great.

These are easy to make and healthy. I used Splenda instead of sugar. Next time I make these I will cut down on the cloves.
