Greek Cookie Recipe?!
Greek Cookie Recipe?
Someone at work went to a local Greek Festival and brought in some Greek Cookies. They were wonderful, sort of like a shortbread, not dry, not too sweet. They were in a semi braided shape, long, about 2 inches in length.
I would love to have the recipe if anyone has it.
Thank you!

It was probably these
GREEK KOULOURAKIA COOKIES
1/2 lb. butter (no butter)
1 c. yellow Crisco
1 c. orange juice or milk
6 eggs
2 3/4 c. sugar
3 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp. baking soda
2 tsp. vanilla
Flour to make soft dough and don't stick
Shape cookies in twist. Brush with beaten egg yolk and sprinkle sesame seeds on top. Now that's Greek way you can just frost the cookies also. Bake 375, 12-15 minutes. Makes a lot.
