Spoon the vanilla mixture down one side of a piping bag fitted with a ½ in star nozzle and then spoon the colored mixture down the other side.

    I rated these a 5 even though I haven't made them yet. I'll make these when it cools down a bit around here and for sure during the holidays. Can't wait to see how they turn out with different colors!

    Beautiful Ahmed, really delicate and looks delicious too, the amount of red color makes it perfect to be yummy and to look almost as if they smell too.
    Congrats!!

    You may only open a bakery if I can be your taste tester, my friend, and I would help you too.
    'A rose is a rose is a rose' that is a line written by Gertrude Stein in 1922 but she was wrong!
    A rose is a rose is a fabulous and beautiful rose cookie made expertly by Ahmed. I hope to make these very soon.
    Blessings, Joymarie

    I love to bake cookies and these look great. Just printed your recipe. Thanks for sharing. Falafel Fanatic is right. If you don't already have a bakery,you should open one. :)

    I'm really a big fan of yours. Do you own a bakery there in Egypt? I had a girl who stayed with me for 9 months from Helwan (Cairo), Egypt. It was such an ineresting time we spent together, especially in the kitchen. We always made falafel and couscous, especially during the holidays. She and I were like "two peas in a pod". If you do not already have a bakery, you should seriously consider opening one. Your creations are marvelous! Please join "Halal Creations". :-)
