Joy you got me intrigued, and I checked the chocolate bark link on my Rosh Hashanah link; sure enough it didn’t go to the right post, just as you said. I have it fixed now, thanks to you!!

Looks like a great recipe; have to try making makroud since it is a cousin of the lebanese maamoul and less time-consuming!

Rena you can buy orange flower water in specialty and ethnic grocery stores, and I would say all Sephardi stores have it. It is delicious, and very inexpensive.

Simone, hello, I know just what you mean! this is why I never made it, it looked much too daunting. This streamlined and much leaner way comes out just fabulous! I am giving a Pre-Tishrei demo next week in my children’s Schul in Washington Heights, and I gave them a menu complete with dessert. But when they tasted this dessert at our house, they asked me to switch to this dessert!

OMG. Just made it. So much easier than the way I make it. I do mine in a rectangle l, put filling inside, roll into a log then slice, bake. Then once baked and cooled I dip each individual piece in honey I make myself from sugar water and lemon juice.
I made your recipe this morning. So quick and no real mess. Tastes awesome too. Will make it again for yomtov iyH because I am sure this will be finished way before then.
. Thank you and shabbat shalom.

Do you mean the date honey? I think it’s too liquidy, you will just get frustrated. You want a perfect paste, and that’s what my recipe gives you!
